Best Exhaust for turbo application

Hello!

I just wanna know which exhaust is better for turbo application. For the moment i just want an axle back until i install the turbo kit and the rest of the exhaust pipes (over pipe, mid pipe, etc).

Axlebacks wont do much if anything so you could just get one that sounds good for the time being and get a full system once you get your turbo kit.

Nameless needs to get on the ball and make a full 3inch header back piece by piece like they do for the WRX/STI.Seems like a million people are going to boost this car. Every piece can be bought one at a time or a package like catback/headerback exc exc.

I think the largest diameter pipe right now is the GReddy Evo 3 at 2.75 inches. In my experience with other Turbo 4's of similar displacement and power, 3 inch systems were preferred.

Take a good look at Nameless, quality is top notch and the engineering design was well thought. (They also have a groupbuy right now for they Axleback $50 off just FYI).

About size, Don@Accelerated performance has said time and time again, that up to 300 whp the stock exhaust was not a restriction and that on their current 460 whp setup, a 2.5" system is not a restriction either so think about that too. IMHO 2.5" is good enough.

I had a N/A civic, with 3" full, no CAT exhaust.. it was obviously extremely loud, and just like you there was no hiding it, even cruising it was super loud.

3" off the downpipe to overpipe is what we want. after that, it came taper down and be fine. as long as it's not restricted at the downpipe.
