turboback best prices

I want to buy the most affortable turbo back exhaust, can someone provide any link to good exhaust that are reasonably priced. I don't care about the name.
Also can someone list exactly what I will have to buy for this, is it a downpipe and just the turboback exhaust. Someone mentioned something about 02 sensors or something. I really am new to this so any help is appreciated. thanks
Lastly are all turbo back come without a cat? I would like to have one to avoid problems in the future, and will most places still put it on without a cat? Thanks

the most reasonably priced exhaust are used ones that members are selling in the private for sale thread https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/fo...play.php?f=130

a turbo back exhaust consists of the downpipe,cat delete pipe or high flow cat, and the cat back exhaust. if you dont want to mess with emmisions than just get a downpipe and cat back exhaust. if you want the most power replace the stock cat with a testpipe. personally i have a hi-flow cat (wife hates the exhaust smell of the cat delete pipe).

if you decide on a delete pipe or hi-flow cat youll need a mechanical or electrical o2 simulator (search "mechanical simulator" and "electrical simulator"). im not sure if you have a evo 8 or 9, but just make sure what ever exhaust you like you do a search here and make sure there are no fitment issues. if you have anymore questions pm me.

there are plenty of good TBE's on ebay.

search around here for reviews on the megan TBE - most ppl like it.

just watch out that the resonated test pipe is a true 3'' all the way through, some people have reported receiving resonated test pipes with 2.5 or 2.75'' inside diameter if i recall correctly.

another cheap route is to have a local muffler shop customize one for you.

it'll be mandrel bent pipes + a few flanges. you can find a TBE design of your liking and ask the muffler shop to customize the exhaust according to the design but for cheaper (usually, at least my shop was cheaper by a lot)

That TBE is crap, it is resonated and it has a flex.

I think RNR isn't in business, but I got my TBE from them for $600.00. Customer service isn't the greatest and took a little while to actually get my full exhaust, but I love it. My butt dyno noticed a power gain and it is pretty loud, meaning I set off car alarms everywhere I go. I had a chance to compare it to a HKS exhaust, which is also suppose to be loud and the RNR exhaust is louder.
