Best turbo back exhaust
 
Any recommendations? My cat has gone bad and i have a catback magnaflow exhaust system... I figured I just buy a whole new setup with a nice HFC...

why not just get a TP or just a HFC and keep your exhaust. but borla is a good full exhaust. miltek too.

i wouldn't do borla simply cuz its 2.25" where your stock exhaust is 2.17", not much of a difference. Labree, Techtonics, and Miltek make good stuff at 2.5" or larger for better flow.

labree hfc,
and 2.5" pipe to a borla, magnaflow or whatever muffler you want with no resonator...

I cant just get a TP... Mass has emissions... But what would be the cheapest setup? does any company actually sell the whole set up... ( HFC and everything else)

that one says that it fits 1999-2005... my car is a 1998... will that fit mine?

does the labree HFC pass emissions?

yes they pass with no problem, cheapest ive seen while still maintaining quality...

I dont see why anyone would pay all that cash for a brand name exhaust though. IMO, you should get an exhaust shop to bend one up and match it to a muffler of your choice. I have a Miltek 2.75" but I bought that years ago before I knew better. Its also quite restrictive for my latest setup.

you dont need a whole new exhaust. a labree hfc will bolt up to your exhaust you have now. it would change the exhaust note and stay street legal

thats true... but right now i have a custom magnaflow setup and i dont like it cause the shop that put it in did a horrible job... it sounds nice but its starting to rust and ive only had it for less then 2 years... what would be the best cat back exhaust assuming that i bought the labree hfc?
