Want new goodies but not sure
Right now Im runnin a t3/t4 turbonetics/fmax turbo kit with a/c on my 95 gsr, and Im wanting to upgrade to a full 3" turboback exhaust. I am running slightly thicker aluminum dual core radiator and puller fans, and everything fits ok with nothing touching nothing. Now this may sound stupid but, are there manifold/3"Dp combinations that will fit my application, or would I have to switch everything around to make it fit? thanx in advance.

they shouldnt come with the manifold. one problem you may find is with your ac.; you may not be able to fit the 3" dp through. Your best bet is to get a custom dp and exhauts made.

that will choke off power if you do that, you might as well run 2.5turbo back.
think about it the turbo is only going to be able to push the air out of the 2.5 tubing yes it gets bigger, however it would be best to just get 3'' downpipe or 2.5 all the way back

Not always true..... most of the time when you flare out the down pipe from a 2.5 to a 3" you will see a slight power increase... You will not "choke" off power by having a bigger exhaust
Thats like telling me that my setup is choking because I have a 3" flared to a 4" downpipe

I just need to find out who makes them
