Re: TURBO REX
I'd go 2.5" or 3"

Re: TURBO REX
Well, i've come to the conclusion that FMU is not the way to go. And im thinking a 2.5 inch exhaust all the way through with a boost controlled cut out rite before the cat. THanks again to everyone participating on this set up.

Re: TURBO REX
I bought their mild steel FULL exhaust kit and one 14" resonator. If you are even thinking about doing a cutout; keep the stock exhuast. Do a manual cutout or an e cutout but the boost dependant cutout is really not gonna helpmuch...also, NO LESS than 2.5" my dp is 2.5 and my exhaust is 3". I willupgrade toa 3"dp soon enough. I miss open dp...

Re: TURBO REX
yeah if your going to to a cut out, just make it a manual one and get a chambered quiet muffler to replace the rice boy one you have now. try one of the universalls off summit racing. youll save money since you wont be replaceing your whole exhaust, just the muffler. also a cat helps alot to eliminate the raspy sound. if you dont want to run a cat at least use a resonator to replace it.

It still doesn't open until AFTER spool so it doesn't help spool time much at all. :-\ I would just get a manual one. __________________ Best Car Insurance | Auto Protection Today | FREE Trade-In Quote |
