Turbo or NA?

If you intend to keep the cats, either way, you'll need to just get a catback or get a set of aftermarket cats (such as the Bonez SuperFlo).

Yeah if I were you Id go with Bonez or Racing Beat. Racing Beat is expensive but its worth the price.

i agree, racing beat has the best sounding dual exhaust. if you want a single exaust,go with corksport. i run a borla dual on my 87 and i like it.

One thing about the Corksport is that is is obnoxiously loud.

I just put a whole new exhaust on my S5 NA. I went with the rb streetable header, bonez cat and rb catback (used). Car sounds good at idle and cruising, not a cop magnet, but loud if your really on it.

i wouldn't worry about the exhaust until after you do the swap. it depends on how loud you want the exhaust. duals would be quieter.

3" is way too large for an NA. 2.5" is about as big as it ever would need to be.

No point in changing the exhaust until you do your turbo swap though.

Haha just had to ask. thanks guys. I know this is a bit off topic but what do all of you think bout buying a motor from this website down below? Would you buy one from here?
I live a little over an hour away and don't really care to buy one from Ebay.

I've never heard of that website but I'd definitely check out www.tigerjapanese.com, I have friends who have had good luck with motors from them
