Exhaust for ma GST

Not long ago i got a 95 GST. Im planning on buying a cat back exhaust. I found a cat back exhaust on ebay. Its a Megen Racing Cat back exhaust. Its stainless stell and all that stuff.. but i never heard of megen racing. Have you guys heard of this company and if the exhaust is any good?

What do you recommend for a GST that would add power and nice sound?

Oh and whats the difference between turbo back and cat back? Which one is better?

Thanks

a turbo back is from the turbo, all the way back

a cat back is from the cat, all the way back...

You can get a turbo back made from lots of places local that will be better. don't buy a shitty ebay exhaust, actually.. don't buy any ricer brand exhaust either.

Re: Exhaust for ma GST

If you want to get a t3t4 see SBR and Victory Performance for the 4 or 5 bolt garret flange O2 housings. You will need a manifold as well, most common being the turbonetics cast manifold or the South Florida Performance tubular manifolds.

Another option is the "bolt on" t3/t4s, including the new GT line from garret. SBR, FP, VP, BR, and PTE all offer them. But in reality they all use the SBR housing, FP housing, or the PTE housing, regardless of where you buy it, so check out those site first.

www.slowboyracing.com
www.forcedperformance.net
www.precisionte.com (I think)

Re: Exhaust for ma GST

The apexi n1 catback is a full 3".. You could buy a 3" short downpipe from RRE and a 3" high flow cat also from RRE which is flanged for the Apexi catback. The other option is to just buy the long downpipe from RRE and eliminate the cat. This is my only thoughts on how to do that.

Re: Exhaust for ma GST

From what I know about removing the cat, its not a good idea. The 2nd o2 sensor doesnt like it or something and starts making it lean of rich. I might be wrong, i really dont know anything.
