5" Exhaust

I can get a complete system, turbo back from eBay for $380.00 + 50.00 for shipping wich seems like a good price. The question is, will it really help in performance ? I don't want to chip it yet as I only have 620 miles on it and want to break it in. Thanks.

Actually, exhaust is one of the first things you should do, maybe only superceded by gauges to monitor your engine, egt, turbo, etc. and the last thing you should do is the chip after making sure you can keep an eye on everything.

also, a 4" exhaust is plenty for a stock engine. 5" may be needed if u plan on 2 turbos and stackin boxes w/ water injection, but its still only a 3.5/4" downpipe. and the DP is the only thing that really matters
