Default Turbo exhaust question HELP!!!

OK I need some advise. I just got a greddy kit. Its for my obd1 JDM B16a in my 92 hb. Now the only other thing i need is an exhaust. Seeing as how the DP on a greddy kit fits up w/ your stock cat and work w/ a stock exhaust, would it be a good idea to get smaller then a 3" aftermarket exhaust?

Its my DD and im only pushin 8psi on my stock internals w/ uberdata. I dont want anyting loud or anyting and I really want to get the Apexi WS II exhaust. Its only 60mm piping though.

I dont plan on doing any mojor work to the engine other then maybe a thicker head gasket to lower the comp to safely boost a few more psi. (Low boost 9psi High boost 12psi)

I really want to get it b/c its subtle and quiet. I just need to know if it will work fine w/ what ive got b4 i spend the 400 bucks.

Thanks in advance.

BTW if you can recomend anyting better for the same price shoot it at me.

with a turbo, the bigger the better.

a WS isnt going to hurt power over a stocker........but its not going to make the extra power a 2.5'' or 3'' would .

Yea i know bigger is better, effecicy wise. However its a greddy 18g kit...i wasnt gonna make huge power anyway haha. I just wanted a good quiet exhaust that will work for me.

I can get an N-1 style that has a 2.25 collector w/ 2.5 piping for a bit less, but everyone has some kind of N-1 style exhaust. I like the look of the WS II b/c its not big and it donest stand out much.

Should I go like everyone else and get the N-1 style 2.5 or go w/ the Apexi WS II thats 2.36 but quiet and subtle?

WS2 hands down

you will not need a headgasket to drop your compression, just make sure to get a good tune

1 for the WSII and 1 not...I still like the WSII so far...

It should be a good tune. Its going to be on a brand new dynojet I just wanted to boost a little more then 8psi during "race" times. Im gettin a turbo smart stage 1 MBC and was gonna have stock bost at 9 at high at 12. but that w/ the head gasket. With out ill only tune it for 8 and leave it alone.

Anyone else got an opinion?
