Might be ok - but i wouldnt recomend straight through mufflers without use of a resonator further up the pipe.

Now, as for straight pipes - thats not so much rice as it is crazzy stupid loud... i walk around high powered rifle ranges all the time without ear protection, and straight pipes seems a tad louder than that to me.

Personaly i realy like what i have heard about the B&M exaust... But im unsure of DIA - 2.5'' would be great for NA - but for a turbo kit which i am considering 3'' seems to be the norm.

How will it sound? Loud as hell. Unless you have a really high tolerance for loud, droning noise I'd keep it stock until you can get a proper exhaust.

I personally think glass pack has some back pressure. IMO! I to this day am runing nothing but a resonator on stock pipes its uber loud and you would hate life.

i've never heard the 240 sound ricey like a honda, unless your like some idiots and put on an exhaust tip. But yea, it should sound loud. It'll sound pretty deep if you get a cat-back.
