Missing something here Mike. After the turbo is -after- the- turbo. The
turbo itself is a restriction in the exhaust. After the turbo the bigger
the better - right ?  Might as well just run an up turn though the hood.

Between running though a full Typhoon exhaust - and running uncapped
though a cutout - the difference is immediately noticeable. Spool up is
much faster - Noise is much cooler also.

Andrew has the full ATR exhaust on his truck with a TE -60. 3" dp , no
cat , 3" muffler -out.  He was the quickest Ty at KC .....

> BTW: What is the size of the stock Syclone exhaust pipe?

Its something like 2 1/4 downpipe . To cat out to something like 2 1/2
then spilts off to I think 2 1/4 and then all the way out.

The Tys have a single muffler and 3 " back off the muffler.

Well something fairly close to that anyway.
