    For a turbo setup you're going to want a 3 inch pipe. You also won't want a cat. Here's a soundclip of my exhaust....it costed me about $175. It's a straight 3" with a glasspack and a turbo muffler from summit.

      wtf does a glasspack do. forgive my ignorance but i just dont know.lol is it like a resonator? whatever it is it kept your set up from sounding raspy/ricey. Ive heard them summit ones sound bad. are u running a turbo with that glass pack?
      m20 is plenty. im simply a drifter.

          i was pretty sure on vibrant up till i heard yours...should i look at spintech??haha
          i went to the spintech site and since i cant see ur muffler did u get a race muffler or a street one??
          the race ones might be too loud



          thats the only pix i have. Like I said its just Y piped from my stack piping to the muffler. I dont remember what model it was.
          but it does look like they got a hell of alot cheaper :(

                so is a glasspack the same as a resonator?

                  I say spin tech and a cat and or resonator. I had a spin tech no cat and a resonator and used to set of car alarms.

                          A resonator has nothing "packed" in it. A glasspack is usually packed with fiberglass or something of the sort. I've found glasspacks to be cheaper and a lot of people have had success with them, including me.

                            but does the glasspack being packed cause back pressure? im assuming not since its on your turbo m20. If they acomplish the same thing tho ill just cough up more for a resonator i think. I am reeally reeally trying to avoid raspy. im not sure if cheaper exhaust components actually cause rasp but i think they sometimes do. I wanna do it right once and only once if possible
                            m20 is plenty. im simply a drifter.

                              Ive only seen monkey madness on a car once in someones build. i think it was kiliboy. it looked the best and it was single pipe with 3in twin pipes coming out the back i believe.



                              If i can find this i will buy asap

                                Monkey madness made this, hes on the forums. Also that is a s52 so your m20 wont sound anything like that.
