I acquired turbo back full exhaust with package deal and wondering if anyone used these. It’s a turbo back full exhaust looks to be stainless steel. Are these any good? Loud? How much is it worth if I decide to sell?

Looks to be a single muffler conversion setup that eliminated the catalytic convertors. If I look closely at the pipe on the far right, it looks to have a tube/port connection to supply the port actuators via exhaust pressure.
This means it is meant for the S4 (86-88) because port actuators were powered by the exhaust pressure. But, could be used on the S5 by blanking that tube port. . . .. If in fact it is actually a tube port there because it is hard to see from the pic.
Typically on the S4, the 5th/6th ports are powered by exhaust gas supplied by the last cat, which when using this setup, is no longer there.. . . Hence the need for the tube/port on that piece in order to feed exhaust gas pressure back to the 5th/6th port actuators.
That being said, eliminating all the cats and using a single muffler is not the quietest setup.. . . But, it would be quieter if you used the two middle pipes only. I think the far right and far left pipes are cat delete pipes.
As for price, go to cork sport and compare to their current prices.. . . .. Stainless muffler setups for the 2nd gen are getting more expensive because less people are making them.
.. . . .New twin muffler setups from the last cat back, (y-pipe and mufflers) can cost upwards of $1k or more.. . . .. I bought my Borla setup 10 years ago for $500. . . .Now they retail for $800+ if you can get them.
Should be able to get 300 to 400 bucks for it without waiting too long for a buyer. . . But you are in Hawaii. . . . Shipping costs are out of control which makes it valuable, but the number of buyers in your area is limited.. . .The right person would pay you more for it but you would have to wait for them to show up.

Thank you for the detailed information! I’ll see if anyone wants locally. Thanks again

Wrong.
It’s a turbo exhaust. He said that in his post.
I have it. It’s very loud. Bought it new from cork sport. I think I paid somewhere in the 550-600 range for it.
+1 it fits nice and looks good but ITS LOUD. i think it also uses a stock sized cat delete, so you could run a converter if you wanted to keep the smell down
I currently have it and yes it is effin LOUD! I want to quiet mine down a little so I don't have that drone on the highway. I do like it tho, I've had it since 2011.
I remember back then buying off their website. Plenty of good options for parts back then. Price? Not too sure on that. However I would say its quality. Def going to be waking up your neighbors lol.
