Default Downpipe cutout?

Hey, i just purchased qtp headers and a qtec 3" cutout. but now ive decided to go turbo, i can no longer use these parts. theyre brand new in the box. now im wondering can i still use this cutout with the groundzero kit? whats the diameter of the downpipe anyone know? or would it be worth a little custom fabrication since i already own the cutout? And should i keep the y divider pipe? lol i gotta figure out what to do! i waited so long to finally get these parts and theyre on their way out.

also PM me if youre interested in the headers, QTP LT 98-02 race ready 1 3/4.

i plan on doing that, and then running some really quiet exhaust, should work out nicely.

ya so far it seems like it may work. its better than running an open downpipe. lol our cars need those tips. plus. it'll be nice to have the quiet/loud option.

The pipe off the turbo is 3" unless you got a monster turbo and asked for 4". The cutout you got will work just fine. All ya gotta do is is cut the pipe and install it somewher inteh exhaust. GL man

you wont be able to use the Y pipe, but you definatly should use the cutout. mine picked up maybe 75hp when i opened the cutout.
