Cool Search for 500E500....

There is a number of posts that lead to exhaust mods (Timevalve Y-pipe or custom built systems) to Nitrous Oxide from Bergwerks. High flow Air filters and Air boxes to chip programmers. There are quite a few people on here who have done a few mods to Scott who has a great site dedicated to our cars. It is at www.500ecstasy.com/forums/index.php. Good luck and enjoy the might 500.

Arrow Weight is the biggest factor.

Your E500 has a very heavy resonator and muffler. The Timevalve Y-pipe replaces the resonator and saves weight. Remember our cars are no light weights This frees up a little flow and gives the car a bit more growl upon exceleration. With K&N filters added to this, you can get some gains. The car feels much quicker with the first gear start and ASR defeat. This is just some common things people do, but I am no expert. Personally, I plan to do a custom mandrel bent 3" Cat Back with K&N filters to start. I would then like to save up for the NOS setup and ASR defeat. Cheers and welcome to the board!
