woot. sounds good.
thank you for the reply.
and yes, i was thinking that the stock (any vehicle) turbo made in california with the dual cats would have tons of back pressure, but my logic was that most people would upgrade to aftermarket turbos giving higher boost. in turn needing more exit bandwidth. which in turn of course would cause more damage... well, i don't know how the fk i even came to that conclusion in the first place. was researching turbos and some wiki said it worked more effectively with an open outflow. so instead of thinking logically, like "oh, it just won't be as effective", i got a little paranoid and was like, "crap!".
in any case, that answers this one... and thank you much for that.
