Hey zJatoRad I have the same combo - 5 Port Turbo and JP-4 pipe and am wondering if this is not an ideal combo?

The engine runs nice with solid mid range but not much down low performance which I need to clear some largish jumps. Plus a little more top end would be nice. I don't know, it just seems a little flat at the moment. Maybe I'm being to critical perhaps.

Can you expand a little on your experiences with this combo and how the performance has increased? I'm not overly concerned with run time at the moment, just general engine performance comparisons between pipes.

Cheers
