2.5 inch exhaust would be fine on your setup my wagon ran a t4 turbo 3inch dump 3inch hi flow cat into a 2.5inch system it made 210kw on 14 psi.... the results speak for them selves

He's trying to make excuses for his wack power figures . Crank a cooler, bigger exhaust if you please and a boost T aha. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

yeah man, definitely a cooler if you don't have one. Will be the most cost effective improvement you could make. Good work so far though!

I'll admit that I still have problems with it. Not quite the power I was hoping for but I will be intrested whether fixing the manifold to turbo exhaust leak will help with it (lol, sounds like a lawn mower under load ). Planning on getting a cooler next week. Happy with it being a daily driver though.

Really appreciate it buddy. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Gotta remember its auto tho man, autos dont pull very good figures on a dyno, id say thats pretty acurate for a stock boosted auto with restricted zorst and no cooler, with those mods youd see maybe 160-170, so your not missing the boat.

seen a black walky mock up yesterday in Craigmore. Looked clean from a distance but noticed it didnt have the lower lip. They never look right without the lower front lip imo.
