Hi, I have a relatively stock 2.5 engine (but with larger turbo).
I'm wondering what you guys suggest regarding exhaust.
This is going to be mostly a daily driver, with several AutoX and occasional track day car. Sometimes I drive for 9 hours in one 24 hour period.
The province I live in doesn't test for emissions (yet).

My concerns are: power, sound quality (I like a sporty exhaust note, but don't like drone), exhaust odour, aerodynamics and aesthetics.

What I have to play with:
Exiting the turbine is 2.0" pipe that becomes 3" within 12 inches on downpipe.
I have bought 2 "high flow" (400) 3" cats and 2 3" magnaflow tubular mufflers, the entire exhaust will be made from 3" pipe.

Should I go single or dual exhaust?

Single exhaust on my car with 3, 4 and 5 inch all sound fantastic to me.
Try an MBRP resonator. I am going to be trying one out but I am a ways away from getting things back together.

Screamer pipe. Do it!

dual exhaust will only make your wallet lighter and your car heavier.

FWIW the 700 HP dodge Hellcat cars use a dual 2.75" system with EPA-happy cats and mufflers.

twin exhaust is a waste of time on a single turbo car. 3" turbo back is good.

I had a twin exhaust, but the 2nd was a screamer pipe to the rear. It was cool but got over it.

I would start with a single 3"... also your exhaust exiting the turbine is too small....possibly your turbine is too small. Get rid of that #6 housing!!

3" turbo back, not cat or resonator, no wastegate tie in, wastegate dump pipe, to dual 20" tips. LOUD but I also got silencer inserts for em, since its my daily driver. Turbo wine is alot more noticeable. I also have exhaust popping on de-acceleration and known to pop flames every so often. =)
