| How much power do you want to push? Less than 400 then get 2.5" more then get the 3". |

| I'm personally going with a 3" exhaust. I'm with the school of thought that bigger is better on FI (of course there are always exceptions). |

Depends on your long term goals. If you want to reach 400whp or more, 3". If you want less, 2.5" will be fine.
True, the less exhaust restriction the better, but you will hit PLENTY of other restrictions before exhaust makes a HUGE enough difference. Example: Head, CAM, Manifold, Turbine wheel and A/R.....Need I say more? |

Absolutely! However all of those mentioned above costs more than an exhaust. :(
Manifold (a better one that is EL) would be atleast $800 - not to mention you'll need to modify down-pipe most likely.
Turbine wheel and A/R - each about $200 plus labor for turbo rebuild.
We know how expensive our cams are.. LOL.
A new head will set you back over a grand. |

You have to pay to play in FI. No exceptions, no questions. |

Yeah, someone on here actually picked up over 3 PSI of boost with our head. THAT IS IMPRESSIVE flow. |

I'm saving up =p
I won't have enough for the complete head + bc cams, for at least another 3-4 months tho.
I had other expenses come up.
But I can't wait to get it >.< !!!! |

I think its the best exaust... I prefer it over my dezod turbo-back exaust...
it looks so stock and sounds quite so its good for getting away from those fix-it exaust tickets |
