Default Time for exhaust... Custom anyone?

Im building now for the future as my flex pipe has a hole in it. Im planning on running boost next year so while i do the exhaust now i want to plan for boost.

What size would be ideal, 2.5" 3"? i am leaning toward a full 3"

Also anyone have a custom 3" done and what resonator/cannister are you using ideally i wanted to use a J's Racing Ti one but it may be hard to find.

Thanks and post pics of your set-ups if you have em.

The best exhaust for turbo is no exhaust Therefore the bigger the better.

I am running a 2.5" off a "Y" pipe into a Vibrant muffler and its stupid loud. I would love to do a 3" experiment with a resonator or 2 to see where that lands me. On the quest for the quietest setup that makes the most power.

3 or 4 for turbo. SMSP or K-Teller sells nice kits. Or you can get a Magnaflo.

The dual exit black muffler......We used a 2.5" on my car and a 3" on my friends Turbo Lude and both are just ridiculous....Nothing I would want on a street car. There needs to be a RES or 2 on there to quiet it down.....I am used to my RSR and Greddy SP2 so I knew this was going to be louder, but this is just insane. Its almost as loud as when I ran a str8 pipe into a glass-pack, but sounds better. Don't get me wrong, the sound is nice when racing......but street duty is out the window. I will dig up the Dyno video I have which has sound.....

use an e-cutout set up. i got a DMH 3inch but havent had it put in yet. i wanna use a b-pipe set up so its more of a straight thru cut out set up but with my lowered car, its not possible.

If I had deep pockets I would buy the HKS Carbon-Ti muffler. It looks really nice in my opinion.

This should work.....4-2-1 Vibrant header into a "Y" pipe into a 2.5" Vibrant muffler.
