It's a brand new pipe with barely 5 tanks ran thru it. From what I understand, the JP1 is tuned to improve low end performance. Does anyone have any personal experience with this combo, or give me some idea how this pipe on a B5 will affect it's tuning and performance characteristics? I just don't wanna go into this combo completely blind, so I will be able to identify tuning issues with this specific pipe on the B5 and know if a problem occurs, or that's just how the engine should act with this pipe on it. Any info will be greatly appreciated! Thanks guys!

it actually doesn't run too bad on a JP-1.....seems to be plenty snappy on the bottom and have a decent RPM range....It is definitely not as strong and crispy as a 2013, but it still does quite good...
