The only way you are going to create a faster spool-up is to reduce backpressure in the exhaust. That pipe would have to be very accurate to provide much of a difference.

I don't think it's worth it. Especially if you are running a T25.

only Carb engines need backpressure for tq. EVERY engine wants 0 backpreasure, you will maximum tq and hp that way. of course with only happens with proper tuning. backpressure is never your friend, it is the enemy.

No engine needs backpressure... not even carburated ones.

i thought u wanted a little backpressure on n/a engines to scavenge the rest of the exhaust in the head. thats why they make 2.25" pipping for n/a cars and 3" and up for turbo cars (exhausts of course)
