Honestly, who in their right mind would spend a few grand on a turbo kit and not put an exhaust on it.. The stock piping is what... 1.75" maybe 2? Killing spool and robbing of horse power. The xB is no camaro, the stock exhaust won't support 500whp. ;)
The car has more than just a downpipe, the exhaust currently extends down the center well of the xB and then makes a 45* turn and exits just before the right rear wheel, it just has no muffler. We will be using a straight through design muffler on our exhaust system (similar to the tC), so you can expect a minimum loss of power. We'll also be trying to keep the exhaust as straight as possible.

I just wanted to let all knwo that our kit is 06 compatiable...both our xB and xA ou an 06 and we have wiring diagrams for the ecu and emanage.
We will include both directions for either year with kit. Thanks

What type of intake system would work with this setup zpi is running? I'm looking to go ahead a purchase that while we wait.
Oh! By the way...I picked up my '95 BCP last Friday!!!!! I've been reading posts on here for a long time. Finally, I get to share. WOO HOO (sry. know it's the wrong place, but had to get that out.)
