3in exhaust

[LBM Turbo]

What is the best 3in turbo back exhaust for our car? I am looking for a apexi N1 turbo muffler but am open to other opinions. Thanks for the help.

GHL turbo back: #1 on my mod wish list

GHL's Resonator is too restrictive. it shrinks down to like 2.3inchs or something. GHL gain'd a whoping 10whp full T-back.

IMHO custom is always best. That way you get the material, diameter of pipe, resonator (or none) and muffler of your choice. Not to mention the fact you have more say as to how it will fit up to your bumper and as far as I've heard, in most cases, this ends up being the cheapest route too.

For example I purchased only GHL's downpipe and I'm going to have a custom ss 3" exhaust fabricated behind it with a resonator that has a true 3" internal diameter and finish it off with an HKS CF-Ti muffler. I'm estimating total cost is gonna be right in the $1100-1200 range for all of the components, fabrication and shipping costs. That will put me right at the same price range as the GHL full t-back for an exhaust system exactly how I want it.

you can order the ghl spipe, wich and then take it to a good exhaust shop to have a 3inch bent all the way back for you.

or if your in the same boat as me and not many people will do 3 inch for you, order the ghl without a cat or resonator or muffler. and then take it to a shop and they will weld your apex muffler on.

I'm runnin the 3' apex DP,matted to the thermal 3" exhaust.very good setup

i ran the unpopular 3in custom crushbend from s-pipeall the way back and mated to a ractive turbo style oval fart can3in/3out. sounds pretty deep no raspyness whatsoever.
got it all intalled $250 plus $95 for the muffler

Both cars peaked out at the same horsepower numbers. John's car is about as efficient as its going to get without increasing the boost. Without more positive pressure, there isnt much more positive gains to be had.

No comment about the 10whp GHL? I would be interested to see what your exhaust makes catless and without that crappy resonator.

if you actually read the thread where I posted my numbers in the Dyno Sheets section, you'd see all the reasons why my dyno figures are less than ideal. I'd wait for terbow to dyno his, as he got a baseline for his when he was stock. The car feels significantly stronger and faster since I installed GHL's exhaust--bottom line. Hazexban can attest to that. We always suspected my speed was faster, but now its pretty clear that I'm way ahead...at least for now, hehe.
