The Gen 3's can throw the tune off big time. Combined with test pipes I wouldn't be surprised if you are making less power than stock. If you get tuned

If you get tuned you will get back all the lost power and then some. The actual gains during a tune are mostly in regards to how far off your tune is now.

Once I tuned the car definatly "woke up". If you have those intake and exhaust mods you most certainly should tune. It makes a big difference. I gained plenty of torque and power thru the whole rev range.
