Hey guys... just thought to ask if any of you are running your Maser on straight pipes...??? is it BIG difference besides the obvious sound increase???

Thanks in advance for your kind input.

I suppose a related question would be, what kind of exhaust system does a Trofeo have?

Here's what I found:

"A Trofeo begins life as a Cambiocorsa Coupe chassis, which receives a substantial yet straightforward transformation to race spec. The 4.2-liter Maser V-8 is internally stock, the only mods being a free-flow exhaust system and revised engine mapping. The result is 413 horsepower, compared to the stocker's 385 SAE net rating."

So, in theory, straight pipes + associated ECU mods could have a substantial effect on power.

That revised engine mapping might count on using race gas rather than 91 octane.

Great point.
