Hey guys i was wondering if i plan on getting boosted down the road would it be ok to get the 3 inch exhaust instead of going from 2.5 to 3. I would be spending mucho money. Thanks for any answers

 

3"! If you are for sure about going turbo with a lot of power in mind.

If later on i decide not to go turbo will 3 in have bad effects on my motor?

 

Here you go, straight from Dezod's thread!!

"Exhaust:
I want a 3”! NO my son. 3” exhausts are only beneficial at a certain point. On most cases for what most people on these boards do or have, a 2.5” exhaust is perfect. If done correctly with mandrel bends and a good muffler, a 2.5” will be the best performing exhaust for a mildly boosted tC. It keeps exhaust temps hot enough to help them scavenge, which allows for faster turbo spoolup, and more horsepower. Too big of a pipe will cool the exhaust gases down. This creates turbulence and back pressure. The result is actually a loss of power. When you make enough boost, power, and heat, then you can consider a 3”, but until then, stay smart. Save your money and go with a 2.5”. Keep in mind a 2.5” weighs less and the 2HP loss from a 3” could actually perform better because now there’s less weight to push. This will allow for better handling and braking as well. It’s a small amount but every bit helps."

 

I was actually considering dezods turbo. So youre telling me i can just stick with my 2.5inch even when i go turbo?

 

forget what size you need just dump it from the turbo

 

@jct... What do you mean? Im a novice when it comes to the car lingo and tuning

 

just a turn down from the turbo no piping or mufflers needed

 

Lol dont listen to him. That's straight racecar stuff. If you plan on driving the car daily I wouldn't suggest doing a dump. But the 2.5 should be enough for a stock motor with a turbo imo. If you plan on holding the motor then get a 3".
