I would suggest not looking for the cheapest route, I know that money can get tight, but you are really going to regret getting an inferior product when you go to put it on and it doesn't fit right or it starts to rust within a year and a half.

I would say that RNR Racing has the best turbo-back for the money. Their O2 eliminator is 699 and I have heard nothing but good things about them except for the fact that they were having a big back log on getting their stuff out, but that was eight months ago when I was looking for an exhaust so it might be a different story now.

I personaly would recomend just buying a good quality down pipe, and haveing the rest made localy. Most local shops wont have a manderal bender however so the pipe will be press bent, but on a 3" turbo back with a good DP, no cat and stright muffler I dont really think thats going to make a diference unless you have a pretty extream setup.


I know all in all my 2.5" turbo back cost me around $350 not counting the $100 muffler... Was worth the $100 for a good muffler though, it's deep as hell, and doesn't really rise in volume as you rev higher, just changes tone. Im not even sure what brand the muffler is, I just told the guy at the shop what I wanted (sound wise) and he showed me two, I picked one and there you have it.

I 2nd this option. It is alot of money but I just went from 2.5" turbo back press bent, to 3" 02 eliminator SS turbo back, and you can feel one hell of a difference. I would save your money and go this route.

I third this choice! I ordered my exhaust from them and it was sitting on my doorstep 7 days from the date of order. The fit was perfect, every hanger lined up perfectly. And I cannot get over how good it sounds, much quieter then I was expecting, yet plently loud and aggressive sounding at WOT. Absolutely no annoying drone at all. :talon:

Does anyone have a sound clip for this exhaust??? Or any exhausts really. :( I found a 7 page forum with the sounds from a bunch of different exhausts but it doesnt work. If anyone has a thermal clip that would be greatly appreciated. :rocks:
 
i have an rnr racing 3" turbo back, i have no way to reccord the sound of it, especially since now my car dosent run. It took ahilwe to ship but hey, it was worth it, i would suggest you telling Ryan (Rnr racing owner) exactly what you want. i made the mistake of not telling him i wanted my exhaust flanged and instead it was sleeve fit, witch is still good, but i would of rather had flanges no big deal though, awesome system though sounds very deep.
 
Would it work if I got the cat back from RnR racing and got like a Megan downpipe? Im just wondering if I should get the cat back or turbo back....

The downpipe is the most restrictive part of the exhaust, if you have the money I would go ahead and do the whole exhaust. It made a huge difference on my car and I have an Apex N1 downpipe and cat-back with a ported stock 02 housing. It really made a big difference up top.
 
I have an exhaust clip of my car. 3" turboback..Megan dowpipe, the rest is custom piping from a muffler shop. No cat, Magnaflow muffler. PM me with your e-mail addy if you want me to e-mail the video to you.
 
Sorry for the lame question but what kind of power gains can you expect from a turbo back system? I heard about 25hp but Im not too sure if its right. Also if you were to have a 2.5 and a 3'' exhaust would they both make the same amount of power if everything else was stock?
 
i have an rnr o2 housing 3" its nice but my oil filter hates it. so if you go with RnR get the o2 down pipe 2gether so theres no flange less bolt. also im having my flang cut off and my 3 inch custom made down pipe welded to it. im also runing a thermal ss cat back 3"

also you could buy all 3" maderl bends realy cheap of line. if you need to know what bends you will need pm me with your yr make and model awd or fwd and then go tt he shop with a few pics of othere 3 " cat backs so they can weld you up something nice and you will save about 200-275$ :thumb:

hope this helps you out and good luck
 
I have a Apexi n1 cat back, 3in. Only had it on a month, and than some lady pulled out in front of me. I'm looking for a 2g so I wont be needing it. It has a small dent but it was there then I bought it, its nothing bad. I got it for $490 go here to see it. Email if your intersated.
