420bhp, isnt that like 350rwhp? I think that can be squeezwed out of the stock turbos, not enough in my books for a single turbo to get the benefits that stock or 99 twins can get. (with proper tuning)

Mind if I ask why? 3" seems to be good enough for most of us.

i think if you wanna exxagerate, put 3 1/2 but 4''? i see no point, unless your making dragster monster power. I like how your car looks though, the wing is pretty sweet but a little overkill, need some rims and tires, and I personally like a more aggressive exhaust, but that really is JUST my opinion, to most people its fine.

that's what i was thinking. but Mazda's 13B two piece seals are different than Renesis's seals.

4" piping is useful at power levels over ~400rwhp, from what i have read.

Maybe in the US, but not the UK - curent highest on stock twins is 316rwhp over here.

Huge exhaust isn't to my taste, but it common in the UK - if a large animal (something like a bear ) can't hide inside your exhaust it is regarded as too small

Congrats on the car Titan3, I trust we will be seeing you posting up some 1/4mile times as the weather improves? I assume Pip did the mapping for you?

i think i'm going to disagree... jim wolf (the guy that loves nissan 300z's, etc. most nissans) did a study on this and came out with the answer that unless you're puitting out 800hp, 3in pipe is enough... I don't think this would be any different for a rotary, but just food for thought
