Straight Pipe????

What is better? Straight Pipe or Catback?? I know a straight pipe will make crazy noise but it will give me much more horsepower.....but do I not need backpressure for the turbos??

No you dont want ANY backpressure after the turbos - And yes a STRAIGHT PIPE w/o cat or muffler will be PAINFULLY LOUD
illegally so for the street and mos any track with a 100db or less noise limit - unmuffled rotarys can get over 120db loud! probablly 105db-110db for a turbo 13b - fd's with DP catback and HiFlow cats can easily excede Laguna Seca's 95db noise limit.
