cat back is from the second catalytic conveter to the tip...more power than an axleback...from the rear axle to the tip. What would be better is a full exhaust which deletes both cats and is from the headers back...and yes the ARK N2 is comaptible with turbo

You could also try just changing the muffler to a magnaflow. I did this temporarly but i want a little louder, deeper tone (so im going with a different axle back exhaust). But I think something like this would definately be what you are looking for because its noticeably louder than stock but not obnoxious at all (like I love) with a nice tone.

if you want good HP gains then you need to get a catback. since you want it for a turbo, you need a 2.5" exhaust. i think the borla is only axle back?... maybe i'm wrong, idk. eitehr way, what's your max budget. the tsudo won't provide any gains or anything for you.

How hard would it be to make your own exhaust? I mean...I know if I wanted a muffle that would have to be bought..but other than that?

[table:1b2c33fabb][col:1b2c33fabb]Agency Power Ti Exhaust System
Type: Cat-Back
Part Number:
Colors: stainless steel finish /w titanium muffler.
Pipe Size: 2.25"
Tip Size: 4"?
Application: Scion tC
MSRP: $700
Street: $600 on sale, price check please.
Manufacturer's Site: www.agency-power.com
Agency Power has always engineered products to provide a gain in performance, while offering a stylish alternative to enhance your vehicles appearance. The latest product from the Agency Power line up is this complete catback exhaust system for the Scion TC. What separates this from the competition is that the exhaust is a complete catback. Most exhausts on the market are only axle back. This system is complete 321 stainless steel with thick flanges. The piping is all 2.25 inch in diameter and fully polished. The exhaust includes amazing tig welds, mandrel bends, precision hangers, and a resonator for the perfect sound. The muffler is lightweight titanium burnt to offer a deep colorful look. The tip is 4 inch with the Agency Power logo laser etched and titanium as well.

The exhaust system was tested on an Automatic 2006 Scion TC. Using a Mustang AWD Dyno, we were able to get 6 wheel horsepower and 10ft/lbs of torque. Results for the manual car will be higher. The complete catback offers a great race sound for the Scion TC.


Pros: great looks, great fitment, great sound, +6whp/10ft/lbs on a automatic. more for a manual of course.
Cons: increased interior noise, scares little kids.
