Magnaflow exhaust system

Post by KingSpeed » Thu Dec 27, 2007 1:22 pm

Is this a good exhaust system? and i am planning on going turbo and everyone says that you need 3in exhaust and this is only 2.25in. is this just going to mess up going turbo if i just keep this exhaust?

The short and simple answer is: it will work, but you just won't get all the potential out of the turbo. Basically it won't spool as quickly, from what i've read in the Forced Induction section. Poke around there and I'm sure you'll find some threads on the subject. If you do any serious upgrades then there could be problems.

I'm sure someone will chime in, but the SRT system is good for "stock". The turbo itself is a pretty good muffler. Just type in turo exhaust or muffler into the search above and you should get a shitload of arguments :lol:

Hmm, maybe do a 3in system right now with a crappy muffler. When you get your turbo, ditch the muffler and make it a side exit?

Borla.

They make the SRT Mopar Dual catback exhaust system. Its still 2.5" diameter but flows better than stock. Otherwise I think you'll have to get an adapter of sorts (can't remember exactly) from the turbo to go to a 3" diameter exhaust.
