Default OK- HS turbo guys and exhaust- Step in

I would like to see all of you HS turbo guys with your kits on and what the rest of your exhaust looks like?

A dump out the fender or fed into your factory style exhaust to the bumper.

What does it consist of and PIX would be great!

Do you have a electric cutout on it as well?

blah blah

X2 still don't have mine installed yet but I was thinking a 3-4 inch cutout right after the hot side ends but afraid of to much cabin noise but seems the most effient for my turbo to me

I have a cutout about 6 inches off the down pipe, then the rest is ran through my Magnaflow exhaust. Huge difference in sound, I mean huge. Im so glad I welded in that cutout, there's no way I could ride around with that thing open all the time. Sorry, no pics

I had this custom system made local. I have a flexible joint installed by the v band ring and it runs all the way out the back into a Hooker Maxflow muffler. I put about 2k on my car with an open downpipe and now it sounds stock lol. It was a huge change. The turbo is way quieter but I do plan on installing a cutout where the little bullet is located.

Single 3" all the way over the rear axle and then it "y" into 2 3" pipes and into my CME. I would not call it quiet by any means but it is quieter then my 3" true duals were

Your setup is ******* sick!!!! IS that a 3 or 4" system?

Any idle vids?

It's a 3" system. Here's what the muffler looks like inside. It's super quite at idle but once in boost it gets really loud. I love how it sounds!



No idle videos, I'm currently have tranny problems

Looks Good Ray! What shop did this? I plan on running an electric cutout right after the down pipe and running it straight back to my stock catback. Best of both worlds.

Forgot to add it runs back to a Corsa catback. Sounds great!! pretty loud at idle and quiets up once you get on it.

Don't have the HS kit but my kit was similar. Had a local shop do a custom setup that turned out similar to Ray's, however I have a cutout.


Here's what it sounds like with the cutout open.

Do I need some type of flexible piping coming from the downpipe? I mean exhaust systems hang on little rubber bushings that allow the exhaust to flex a little, correct?
