they have it available, 3" universal, which will require you to have hangers and piping welded onto it. check for Kteller on here, ive seen some group buys with that exhaust but it costed around $700 complete.

no, they make a standard sized n1 for all-motor setups. Most of the N1s ive seen are typically used for all motor setups.

i bought an n1, ready for my turbo setup, but never installed it after hearing a couple of sound clips and a buddy of mine that had it. when i heard them without resonators, they were insanely loud (it would be with any other exhaust too but i still believe n1 would be the loudest) and i sold mine. switched to the thermal R&D. nice deep tone, stock canister look, and they are sold ready to be bolted up

I also found that the sound depends upon the way the exhaust is angled. I've had many comments that my exhaust on my turbo car sounds very deep and throaty w/ an N1, with no resonator or catalytic converter

it will be loud to get a good flowing exhaust. you can run a high flow 3" cat or a 17x3 resonator, or even see what TheShodan did to keep it down a bit. I am running no cat but a 17x3 resonator and keeps it at a deeper tone and a bit quieter. I know for sure that i sacrificed some power running the resonator but it was worth the exchange to keep it quieter. I ran the WS2 muffler a long time ago when my car was NA and that thing was like stock. Wouldnt recommend running it on a turbo and its not even big enough either.
