I am getting nismopowers13 motorset from him for 620 shipped it is missing maf, turbo, and the wiring harness is cut and of course the intercooler. Now i want to ask something is it possible to use just a cut harness or should i just order a full one? How does a straight 3 inch pipe with muffler sound an a ca or a 21/2 inch without cat i live in ok and have no emissions so thats all good. After i put on the exhaust and intercooler and air filter i will get it tuned to let all know what basicly a stock one puts out. Any info or suggestions please feel free to enlighten me oh and also its missing aac valve. holla back

If youve got money to toss around sure, doesn't make sense though when it could be rewired. I wouldn't know first hand but Ive heaRd that with a turbo car bigger is better for exhaust, helps releave back pressure created by turbo. I'd love to see what kind of #ERS YOU BRING BACK AFTER ITS TUNED, GOOD LUCK, AND WELCOME TO THE BOARD

I know bigger exhaust is better but i was wondering how it sounds. And have u ever heard of someone using a eclipse turbo on a ca18det cuz i got a free one just curious i figured it would bolt up but i have to do some custom work with the piping.

depends on wut exhaust you're talkin bout. i like the sounds of big exhausts personally. but if u put a huge exhaust on a car w/o a turbo it will be crazy loud, but if u put a huge exhuast on a turbo car, it would just be a lil loud.
