Larger Exhuast
What's needed to put on a larger exhuast? right now I'm at 1 7/8 inch or something like that(small), I'm thinking about maybe a 2 or 2.5 inch piping. I have acess to a mandel and plenty of tailpipe. SO hit me up with what I'm suppose to do to upgrade my pipes

Re: Larger Exhuast
The most important part in a turbocharged system is the downpipe, because that reduces backpressure immediately behind the turbo and helps it spool quicker.
Depending on the size of the turbo you're using, and the HP you're expecting, 2.5 inches from downpipe to cat is fine, then 2 inches back.

?I was giving you a general idea of what you need to do. All cars are different. The point if you're going to increase the diameter of the piping, the part right after the turbo is the most important.....
