Who is running testpipes and do they increase HP?

Did you really feel any horsepower increase via the butt dyno? Have you run a roll on comparison with a stock m3?

I think my car feels slightly peppier, but could be due to the accompanying stage 2 tune. Or maybe the extra noise is producing a placebo effect?

In real world acceleration would it even reduce a quarter mile run by a 1/10th of a second?

Thoughts?

I've read on here, and seen the dynos posted, showing that TP+stage 2 is the most tangible way to increase HP and Torque on this engine without a SC. I am going to go this route, so I have bee researching and most here that have posted say that this combination has a large impact.

I have an ESS tune and full Arka exhaust and I can easily put many cars lengths on a stock car

I believe you get around 25 hp out of this change. You should check out http://s65dynos.com/ and you can check different configs dyno results and make a call.
