hi fellas just wondering, im thinking about doing at n/a - turbo conversion (if i dont sell my car) and was wonderin if the size of the exhaust really matters, im currently running a 2.5in lukey. would you reconmend upgrading to 3inch would it make a diffrence with boostin ect....?

Less restriction the better
3" - upto 250-300rwkw
3.5" - 300-400rwkw
4" - 400+
Its a pretty generalistic number, so dont take it as gospel. I did run 350rwkw with a 3", but it was choking a bit.
Going from a 2.5 to a 3 on a stockish setup you will notice a difference indeed. It might not be a lot, but if you run a bit more boost later, it will hurt more and more etc.

lol. We have to keep up with ricers some how! We have to have the bigger and better toys lol.
3" dump to 2.5" would be sufficient for a stock high comp setup no?
