Make sure not only to look for brand but also size. Do a search.... a lot of us go custom piping to get the best of both worlds.

I would say 3.5-4" piping depending on how much boost you're running.

A decatted 4" would be great. A friend of mine ran that on his Supra when he had a 66 on an HKS muffler.

I'm running a custom 3" catless/resonator less (basically straight pipe) with 2 3" polished tips, I run silencers for daily driving, it's still loud, but on the stock 1J sounds ****in radtacular.

Sizing would depend on how low you are. I'm low, and my exhaust hangs about 2 inches from the ground =/ If you're not that low and can fit bigger piping, it'd probably be better with that big of a turbo.

if you dont mind me asking.. how much did they charge to do your exhaust? what was the overall cost?




also i have a stcok 2jz ge

what mods need to be done in order to have a performance exhaust..i know that sounds like a dumb question...

and with it stock can i still have 3" to 4"?

my exhaust ran me around the ball park of 1100-1200

and a stock 2jz-ge with a 4 inch exhaust there is no way that would be needed, even a 3 inch people notice power looses with NA.

Could you just run 3" to 2.5" pipes all the way back with two mufflers??

Might be too small for his turbo setup.

That would be good. Thats what I have right now. I had it on my stock motor for a year, and its been on my 1j for 6 months now. Sounds great!
