Get yourself a GO2072 pipe as the JP one will suck both on fuel economy as well as powerband vs the GO. Also the GO 0801 FEMCA pipe is better than the JP one. Put in the additional shim for break-in and pre-heat it during the process. Also be aware that it takes atleast 1/2 gallon before the engine is fully broken in. If you olan on racing with it change the rod after 1gallon and you should be good to go to for a long time.
