I was just wondering iff anyone knew if the stock sr dump has the same flange as the CA dump and will bolt on to the exhaust side of the turbo?

Yes, you can use SR O2 housing on a CA T25.

Damn...3.25" is pretty big. No need for that unless you are Dee;) But Kakimoto is a good brand from what I hear.

Would be pointless on any T2 series turbo. Min of a T3 and I prob wouldn't bother unless it was a T4 or greater.

why is it pointless for better exhaust flow? Or will it slow me down, since i only have a ca t25?

what? no ryan. the bigger the better with turbo exhaust systems. we're not talking n/a here... 3.25 is gonna be lound as crap, but it will flow better and you will be faster with a larger exhaust. Ideally you would just dump out the side of the car off the back of the exhaust housing, but that'd be horribly loud;)

I think 3 will be big enough but if you are getting a good price 3.25 isnt that much bigger than 3 inches, I always thought it was recomended to stay around 3 inches if you were not in HIGH horse power levels i.e. 350whp+.

Sean, I need an email with your address. To send the pipe.
