Huge turbo-back exhaust

Im thinking of buying a new turbo-back exhaust system for my GS-T. Does anyone know where i can get a BIG opening? Nothing 3-4 inch stuff. Somewhere around 5 1/2 and 6 was what i was looking for. THanks

Why would you want piping THAT big? Correct me if I'm wrong (very common), but exhaust that big would pretty much eliminate backpressure, and a little bit of backpressure is good, right?

Re: Huge turbo-back exhaust

Turbos make their own backpressure, but this is still a little over the line.

Re: Re: Huge turbo-back exhaust

if you want one that big you can just unbolt the whole exhaust... and that is free!

My thoughts exactly. Or, get a cut-out.

Re: Huge turbo-back exhaust

I just think he wants a ricer tip, not the whole exhaust to be that big. Well then I think the apexi n1 is pretty big.

BTW, backpressure is bad

Re: Huge turbo-back exhaust

I just ordered a apexi n1 muffler, and i wanted a custom cat back. How big should i get the cat back, and which is louder a 2.5 in or a 3? Because i dont want it that loud. Does anyone know how much a custom built cat back would cost?

Re: Re: Huge turbo-back exhaust

well the N1 isn't the tip to buy if you want the 'not so loud' exhaust. virtualy anything performance is going to be loud. and find out what the inlet side of the tip is. that will tell you what you have to weld it up to on the other side.

Re: Huge turbo-back exhaust

bigger diameter is always louder.
most mufflers only exit to 3-4 inch. Good luck finding 6 inch... prepare to be called a ricer every time someone sees it.

Re: Huge turbo-back exhaust

The thermal catbacks have a 5" tip. The biggest I'm aware of, if thats your thing

I thought that the best exhaust for a turbo was no exhaust at all?

"Opening" implies to me he is talking about the tip. I thought we covered this already.
