It would seem to me that i am not the stupid one if you READ WHAT I WROTE I want to remove the exhaust and install a turbo and in this case i would need a new exhaust but am not sure where i could sell the sports exhaust that i have now for a few bucks since it is about 3500 to buy it new maybe i can sell it somewhere. I was just looking for ideas not feedback from a loudmouth.

I read it right AZ, and understood what you meant. Just post it for sale in the classified section, and I'm sure someone will scoop it up.

The classified section here and a regular ad on e-bay should sell it fast. I just sold my old 01 gear shift knob on e-bay for $60.00 and it has been sitting in my garage for over a year. Never though it was worth much since it's used and has scratches on it, but people out there on e-bay will buy anything.

There is a company here in phoenix AZ called turbowerx look them up at turbowerx.com for details on the new products they will be coming out with soon looks like a great company to me. I have had a chance to talk with them and have sent many e-mails back and forth about the new turbo they have coming out, sounds good to me from what i have seen and heard let me know if you find out anything different.

Why will the special exhaust you have not work anymore?

I guess the new turbo will not fit into the factory sports exhaust just the standard exhaust.

There's no reason the sports exhaust that you have should not work, just need to fabricate the pipes after the turbo before the rear muffler.

I am familler with this twin turbo setup. From my understanding the muffler and cats that you have can stay.

The turbo kit replaces your headers.

More info is available at
http://www.turbowerx.com/

Turbo Werx is in Austin TX

Turbo Kraft the distributor is in AZ

Have a great night.
