Default new exhaust info

Can't wait to get my new exhaust, I'm going to get the vortex afterburner as it seems to get good ratings and should hopefully make the car sound a bit better, as at the moment I have the standard twin tip system and seems very quiet. I was just wondering if it will add any more bhp and if so around how much, I have a 1998 turbo wagon UK 2000

It's ment too yes And that's over other am exhaust so with removal of catt and a map I'd say more power easy and the angle one produces more than the straight one .

If car was made afer sept 98 and has a E3 ecu it can be mapped,pull up your carpet in the passenger footwell and have a look.If it is a 8S it is a earlier one and as you say can not be mapped at the momment
Good choice of exhaust imho,I've had 3 of them lol,will definetley increase your bhp as the gases will be able to exit much quicker than what your current 'pea shooter's will allow.
As to a figure,its impossible to say as all cars create different power dispite the same mods.

Opensource mapping AFAIK is available for newage cars 2001 onwards. 99/00 cars can be mapped by ecu tek. 92 - 98 its either apexi,simtek or a mines ecu.
