horrible for turbo.

turbo you want to have the most free-flow, largest diameter piping and the RS-R isnt any of those.

is there even any power gains with this RSR?

so what would a good exhaust be for turbo? sorry to thread hi-jack, but most exhausts I see in the FAQ official exhaust thread are N/A setups

does this have to be custom made, or is there a company that makes a good free flowing exhaust?

I resently purchased this exhaust system. Got it for real cheap locally, because the tip got dented in shipping. I like it... sounds amazing. Silent when idling and nice a low when you are on it. Fitment wasn't perfect, but we modded it to fit in a couple hours. I love the look of it as well... but as always it is personal preference.

RSR Ex-mag and Greddy Sp2 are both quiet exhasut. I have to say they both have nice and deep Tone.
As for free flowing exhuast Vibrant make one w/ 3" piping and Greddy is releasing their EVO TT (3" piping) for Honda/Acura also
