Default What would be a decent exhaust?

I'm going to re-do my exhaust, since my turbo project is almost done, but I was wondering what you guys would have to say. Stock I think it's 2 1/4,

OPTION 1: I want to run 2 1/2 with only a high flow cat and a tip, no muffler. But how loud is that going to be on the highway?

OPTION 2: 2 1/2", high flow cat, and one of those mugen style loop mufflers?

I'm up to suggestions, I will be running a 95 del sol vtec (B16A3) with a 1g mitsu turbo (TD05H) at .5 bar. Should I make it, the exhaust larger? Duals (gonna be hard because of the gas lines)? Glasspack with muffler?

I have 2.5in piping from the cat-back. Got a comptech 2.5in Resonator on ebay ... then a magnaflow 2.5in Muffler and it has a deep as tone. Its only raspy when you rev past 5500rpm

I was rolling around for 2 weeks with just the piping and the muffler... that was super hella loud... especially on the highway, not to mention annoying as ----...

this guy sells the resonators... theyre just cosmetically defective(meaning they have minor bumps dents and or scratches, but who really cares how it looks) I know theyre worth more than the 20 something bucks hes askn for em.

So I guess your all telling me to run 2.5" piping, with a res and muffler. But what size cat should I get so that I can still pass my emissions test.

I've never bought a cat before so I'm not sure if displacement means to much in size if you have to replace it more often. Any answers for me?
