A 2.5" single is as big as you'll want to go on an NA, and as small as you'll want to go on a mild TII. It will be light, low-restriction (for the NA), and LOUD!! I have seen just one single that wasn't obnoxiously loud, which was an Apex'i WSII owned by another forum member.
I ran a Mindtrain header, Bonez high-flow cat and Corksport single for about 2 weeks. I measured 124db at 10 feet! Inside the car, it was loud enough to make me nauseous. BTW, the cat takes some of the barfk out of the exhaust, so without it, you would be even louder...

The proper exhaust system for a turbocharged engine is totally different than a non-turbo engine. Also, if you want to go TII later on, then it is better to just sell your car and buy a TII. Single is slightly better for power, and slightly lighter, but much louder.
