    1. www.jegs.com 2. click on exhaust 3. then click on exhaust tubing 4. click on JEG'S Exhaust Tubing or Hooker Headers/Dynomax Exhaust Tube Mandrel Bends 5. order the ones you want.

    and let it take its time on shipping...i think its free if you wait for ground shipping... very good prices and you gets menadrel bends too...

    now someone needs to throw together what you will need for a full turbo back so we can see how much it will be and what you need.

    By the time you build the full turbo back with those prices... it would be cheaper to buy an Invidia system or the like...

    over $50 for a 90 degree bend... I could probably get it $20 cheaper per peice... will look into it

    welll...the 90 degrees bend can come from the U bend...from what i have seen...and it works really well...i did my catback for my tacoma for only 30 bucks...it sounded good and looked good...so..let me do a turbo back and i'll let everyone see the pics too...later on in the future...

    Russ and I were discussing this the other day:

    DC Sports Uppipe (w/flex) = ~120
    HKS 3" DP = ~180

    Thats a turboback exhaust for $300. :shock:

    No... but if all you run is the exhaust a catback is going to net all of about 2whp (.25whp on the RS dyno).

    And your figures are from where? Really, Steve the stock muffler is a large restriction with it's by-pass.

    STi with stealthback, utec, k&n filter.

    First Run (BLUE) = Stock Muffler
    Second Run (RED) = Muffler Removed.

    Gains in torque it seems though...

    Hardly a valid test in my mind. There was no tuning done to optimize the new found loss in back preasure.

    I suppose not, but the person who is going to be paying $300 for a turboback minus catback wouldn't be spending 500 for an accessport or 1k for a utec either.

    Damn, thats a stage 2 kit for $800 with the accessport... thats a pretty sweet deal. :shock:
