Re: magnaflow exhaust on turbo set up
I love my magnaflow muffler. when I put the turbo on there wasn't any buzzing like every other honda with a muffler. even without the turbo it sounded good except when I got on it real hard. The best sounding exhaust out there for a honda I think. The best part about it it when you are just cruzing it doesn't drone inside the cabin. nice and quiet.

you won't need a resonator unless you're going for super sleeper status. And don't bother with buying a resonator in specific if you do, just use a cherrybomb turbo straight through thing--they are cheap as ---- and sound sweet

at the leanest point (above the 4-5psi mark of course) you should be ok.
As for the muffler, I had the single 2.5" inlet/outlet on my old turbo'd b16 hatch. Sounded great, very quiet (a little too quiet for me, I like to cause a ruckus
), nice deep tone and no rasp. I think you'll like it.

Fouled plugs can cause unburned fuel to overheat the converter and melt the catalyst to a solid mass. If the O2 Sensor is not functioning properly it will give the ECU incorrect readings of exhaust gasses. The faulty sensor can cause an excessively rich or excessively lean condition. If the mixture is too rich, the catalyst can melt down. If the mixture is too lean, the converter is unable to convert the hydrocarbons into safe elements.

Re: magnaflow exhaust on turbo set up
No cat is the way, but if you really have to have one for inspection/emissions purposes I'd suggest making a section of the exhaust a "test pipe" section so you can swap the cat in and out for inspection time.
