You wont notice anything different. No offnse but our cars NA arent realy that fast anyway(mid-low 16 second cars). Except for a few of the "special" cars.

> not necessary lost hp, but definately lose loww end torque, >but I say if u go gimg turbo, take it.
I'm with him. You'll lose some low end torque, but your car isn't exactly a torque monster anyway. If you go turbo, the exhaust will probably end up giving you some more torque and hp up higher in the rpms. It will probably either balance things out, or make such a small difference as to be immeasurable.
I mean, depending on how restrictive the stock exhaust is, this one will give you power either way, but I think 3" piping is overkill. Hell, my aftermarket exhaust only has 3" pipes.

the first exhaust I bought for my na was a 400$ greddy evo that was for a turbo model, I put it on and rode around in it for a couple of days. I didnt really feel much of any difference anywhere, but the sound of the exhaust got on nerves, snap crackle pop if you ask me, sounded really shitty. I sold it back and replaced it with a na greddy evo,(2 1/2 inch i think) and i love the sound, plan on going turbo, go ahead and get it

i recently just installed a custom 3" exhaust w/o the cat. and let me say it makes a day and night difference. it sounds awesome w/ 3in, so i highly encourage you to buy it if you're boosting. it's worth it.
