Hey guys I was just wondering with the fabspeed, powerwerks or B&B catback exhausts if I would run into any fitment issues. My engine is stock with my suspension mods listed in my profile. Also approximately how long will it take to install. I remember reading somewhere that I would need to take out the turbo to install. Is this true? Thanks for the help guys

errr no. all of the systems sold are from the downpipe back. The turbo need not be touched. Now if you replace the downpipe, that's a different matter, but only SFR and Lindsey currently advertise 3" downpipes.
Also, the catback is just that, from the cat, back! on a lift it'll probably take you 30 minutes (assuming all the clamps have been PB's and it all just slips off. wrestling with bolts & rusted pipes can take hours and hours.....)

I've fit the Fabspeed and B&B, and the Lindsey and GHL, with no fitment issues with any. I would not run the B&B, for the price, getting 2.5" pipe is a ripoff.

I don't imagine I would gain much if any HP from this change for now. However, I plan on buying a vitesse kit in the near future which would need the bigger exhaust for optimum performance. I would have this already however maintenance always requires more $ than expected! I keep telling my manager I need a raise, but he doesn't listen. lol!!
