Informational, but irrelevant.

It is ok. Information like that should be reiterated millions of times.

I thought the last quote on that page from Jafro was right on point. Spoke on exhaust restriction in the way of turbos. :shrug:

You can fit 3", just go slow and use lots of lubricant.


But wait until you're turbo to do it. Too many people buy so much stuff for turbo they never get around to y'know.. the actual turbo.

Your car is going to run like shit with a 3in exhaust and no turbo. Its better to have a turbo on the car and lose some power with the smaller exhaust untill you can get the 3in then it is to lose ALOT of power running 3in on an NA set up.

Thank you for saying that, I thought there was something wrong with what I was saying that no one understood.

I wouldnt even attempt to install a 3'' exhaust on my car until I was boosted. Im just gathering parts here and there, right now I have a ramhorn, intercooler and piping but needs to be fabbed but I cant do that until I actually get the turbo, have a Greddy type-s BOV, and a 38mm Tial. Still need some injectors, pump, exhaust setup and of course a turbo then all the other goodies as well.
