I am going to be turboing my gsr later in the summer and i am just about finished up with putting my car all together so i need to get an exhaust trying to figure out how much power i am gonna lose running a 3" on the n/a motor till i boost it

 

torque will blow down low. I dont have any specific numbers for you though.

yep....The car will run and not feel too different, but it will be noticable. I'd say get it so then you are forced to get that turbo

 

who cares if you lose 50whp n/a...you will be boosted soon enough

 

oh there is no doubt i will be boosting i have to keep up with my friends who are all pushin 450-500whp so there will be no n/a for me...........i could go with something like a world sport (60mm piping) and then in the fall sell it for the price of a kteller 3"

 

just go with the 3", no point in losing money on buying one exhaust, selling it, and buying another one.

 

Just do the 3", no need to waste money on multiple exhaust's. Thats what I did, I have been runnin 3" na for about 2 weeks now. I noticed some loss but not enough to worry about it....

 

I lost about 2 HP and 1/2 footlb.

 

There is really not that much of a difference.

Power wise I agree totally. I couldn't really feel a difference.. The 3" is noticeably louder than 2.5" though, and prepare for ear splitting loud if you have no cat.

 

well if u were thinking of getting the world sport then changing it later, why dont u just leave whatever is on there now and get the kteller exhaust at the same time as putting on your turbo.

What he said, save time and money. get the 3" slap it on, and don't drive next to cops, lol.

 

I've never been pulled over for my exhaust, but it sets off car alarms.

 

i have 3" on a NA minime with like 7.5:1 comp.. its not thats bad

 

will it bolt right up or do u have to have a diff cat?

 

Cat? who runs those?

yeah top end power will be there, but the powerband will suck since your low end will suffer...it's really up to you

 

I looked on google and from what I can tell it has something to do with meowing.

fo sho.. who does??

 

not me!

i'm gonna see if it will pass emissions if i beat on the car and get the turbo really hot.

i know people have passed that way before.

i LOVE my big exhaust. didnt even bother me when i was NA.

 

i'm in the same situation at this guy, except ive got an exhaust already on my car. i think i'll just slap the 3" kteller on until the turbo goes on in about a month.

any of you boosted bastages wanna buy a Spoon N1
