Yea I think 3" is too big for a N/A setup. 2.5 is usually the best. But I think their are several people running the s-pipe back with no problems.

you can, but there is no point unless you plan to go turbocharged. otherwise you don't need a full 3 inche exhaust.

also, with the header, it will sound very very loud. i am living proof that a header with 3 inch exhuast is very loud.

if your going to stay n/a get either dezod na/sc'ed exhuast, or get custom made exhaust with resonators to keep it quiet and not get rasp.

the Ptuning 3" exhaust sounds really nice on the na tC, Lustine Scion actually sells new tC's with our s-back exhaust on it. There is no power loss with the 3" exhaust on a stock tC, we tested it out on the dyno. When you end up going turbo'd all you have to do is purchase the Ptuning s pipe to have a full turbo back. Plus just keep in mind when you do go boost, a 3" exhaust will always produce the best results

i say go ahead and get the ptuning exhaust esp if you plan on getting a turbo.. if ever you lose any torque it would be very minimal, with the noise though its gonna be loud since you have a catless header, i say put back the stock headers and it wont be too loud or raspy..
