im putting my car in to get extractors, a metalic high flow CAT and exhaust. I plan on getting a turbo in the next few months so am i better off getting a 3" exhaust or sticking with the 2.5" and if i get the 3" will it affect my drive untill i turbo?

Just get the 3 incher. Stiddy runs one, I will be running one next week, and they seem to be fine. I think you may lose a little power down low, but will gain a little up toP.

yeah, forget the milo tin, at the exhaust shop the other day waiting for the xr6 ute we had just converted to LPG, and they fitted a twin tip to it, looked great, so maybe an idea for you.....other wise just go a straight chrome tip on the stainless steel 3' system. stainless gives a nicer note then mild (standard) system. but price is about 400 bucks dearer.

go straight for the 3inch it will benefit you in the long run, both in power and expense.

If you are definitely going turbo, definitely go the 3". Won't do much now, but it will make a difference from a 2.5" once it's turbo. Also don't bother with extractors if you're going turbo soon - you won't be able to use them, and it's just money that could be better put towards the turbo conversion.

You know what the best bit a having a milo tin exhaust is, you get to eat all that milo frist
 : Just do the 3 inch cat back & save the rest towards you turbo mod.

Personally I would wait till I was fitting the turbo to fit the exhaust system. Why waste the money on extractors only to take them off again in a couple of months when you fit the turbo and fitting the three inch now will not give you any major benefit till you get the turbo.
Sooooooooooo yeah I would wait till I put on the turbo. |

Well, I am also now going to wait till I put the turbo on before I put the exhaust on. I have already bought the exhaust, but its just going to sit in the garage until it all gets done.
