the exhausts for turbo cars are generally bigger as more air is flowing, other than that, thats thats it as far as i know

Putting a turbo exhaust on your NA car will make it louder, but if you know you're swapping later, it will save you money in the longrun. Turbo exhausts are anywhere from 5mm to 10mm larger on the average piping wise.

umm, most n/a exhauts are 60-65 mm Most turbo exhaust are 80mm+. so that looks more like 15-20mm larger. Not trying to be a a*s. If you are going turbo in the future, get the bigger exhaust. If you have a 5spd you will barely notice the difference on n/a power loss. The hks hiper is available in several versions 65mm, 80mm and the 25th anv model is all stainless. If you have the extra money, go all stainless. Hope that helps.

Also http://www.nopi.com and http://www.optauto.com both have the hipers in stock. I have done business with both companies and have not had any problems.

the exhaust comes with a resonated test pipe, it has to flare out to bolt the 94mm exhaust on. If you are looking for performance, i dont reccomend this exhaust since it is way too big for most things, i just bought it because im stupid :)

from my recollection the Hiper is 8cm THat is plenty for a SR20

oops nvm it is 6 cm.

Get the N1 if you are for surely getting an SR or something in the 7-8cm size range
