most people are going to say racing beat...
so go with a racing beat header, maybe a magnaflow cat (if you need one) or a racing beat midpipe/testpipe, then either rb catback, or borla, etc... borla iirc has a million mile warranty and sounds pretty nice... if its a 2nd check out the 2nd gen section or the audio/visual portion for sound clips...
i personally have a greddy power extreme catback... and i think its a little loud and a bit big... but at the time its a nice setup and really lets it breathe :p
edit: saw its a turbo so replace header with downpipe...
i have rb downpipe/testpipe to greddy...

Racing beat has a good price on the cat back set up. The mufflers alone are spendy so when you figure you get the pipe and muflers for $500 and some change its a good deal. I paid mor for my cat back. The price then was equal to the dealer price but the good part for me is racing beat is way better then stock. Imagine stock is good but racing beat is the same thing but more powerful more beautyfull and it sings like you have never heard. I have to warn you that when you buy one and you open it up you probly will not want to put it in on your car. I kept mine in the livinroom for a while. One helpfull tip I have is when you get it in the mail do not throw away the packaging untill you have inspected the product. Racing beat will want to see the boxes if there is damage in shipping. I know about packaging problems and raceing beat from experience. Its one of the best things you will ever buy for your rotery car in my personal opinion.

I thought it was Magnaflow that had the Million Mile warranty?


but either way i would go with the RB down and midpipe and then get some RB mufflers or some Corksport muflers
they seem to be the best sounding mufflers i have heard and they both are made really well and have nice power gains too

my bad i knew it was Borla or Magnaflow tht had the Million Mile warranty !
for some reason though i could have swore it was Magnaflow oh well im wrong again as usual of late it seems
the borla system does sound good but im gonan go with some Corksport Cannisters or maybe some good Condition used RB canisters

kouta, i followed the borla parts search on their site, and got to "no specific application" for my 88 TII. Are you buying generic borla stuff and having it welded up? or did i fubar and not search correctly..
