3" exhaust or bigger??
How many of you that have turbo's are running a 3" exhaust or bigger? If bigger than 3" did you notice your turbo spooling up faster?

I went from a stockk GReddy DP which is the size of a pen and a stock Si 2" catback, to a 2.5" DP and 3" mandrel bent catback... needless to say, my turbo spools MUCH sooner now!

I've been debating on how big of an exhaust piping that I want to go with. I've had people say you could probably go as big as 3.5"-4". I just wasn't sure if that would hurt me on top end torque or backpressure.

You can go as big as you can possibly fit. 3" is about as big as the frame will allow on most Honda's w/o alot of rubbing problems so that's the most common size, but really, no exahust would be the "best" way to run from a pure performance aspect.
