you dont necessarily have to be pushing out over 300 hp. a supercharged tc will push out 190, but with the ptuning exhaust its at 200.

Sure it gained a little more, but the question is how much more over a properly sized 2.5 inch exhaust. I have agree still. 3 inch is to big for anything below 300whp.

I agree with Travis. 3" may have more top end but may also sacrafice lower rpm power. Lets also keep in mind that the 3" setups will drone a lot more, and be a little too loud for some people who daily drive their car. A well built 2.5" will perform extremely well, sound great, cost less, and WEIGH less too

Good luck.

You still haven't bought the S/C? Are you again? The best thing to do is install the headers before the S/C. The shaft from the S/C will make it more difficult to install the header, especially the MMW header. That's why I haven't installed my S/C yet because my Megan one is not back from jet-hot.

And, the Dyno results from the P-Tuning one was a stock header with the 3 inch exhaust. They even said in the post that if they had an aftermarket header, they would do and 2.5inch....

i agree with 2 much tC, get the MMW header before the supercharger is installed, its gonna be a b!tch to intsall once teh SC is on. and then get the Dezod Exhaust, the NA one, the turbo back isnt really necessary because it bolts to a turbo kits down pipe (i think) which you wont have, go Dezod NA.

dont go ARK because you have to cut the midpipe behind the Cat so you still have stock piping there.
