Ultimate f/i exhaust?

On a related note, also add a manual boost controller to your turbo's wastegate. It will help it spool faster by not letting the wastegate see any boost until your max psi.

Hell Im 25 and I like quiet exhaust, I prefer to bbe able to hear myself think. And for those of us that tow a loud exhaust gets old real quick, so much so Im going back to a stock catback and am just going to run a cutout off the ORY.

When I first mounted the blower in 2003 I had the stock exhaust and did the following
2004 - Magnaflow Catback - OK good sound not optimized
2005 - Added Shorties - Throatier but not much better in power
2006 - PaceSetter Long tubes - Noticeable better in sound and Power
2007 - Dual 3inch with magnaflow resonators - Too Loud
2010 - Dual 3 inch with a true x crossover pipe and 2 large straight through mufflers. Surprisingly got better mileage probably due to scavaging while not in boost. The x pipe also keeps it quiet in low throttle but turns wild when you turn it up. Ivre read somewhere that the tru x crossover reduces noise by 8 db over an H pipe. Also engine winds up much quicker.
Here's a Clip of the latest at 60% throttle - No drone in cabin
