Howd you manage to get it for $325?

Racing beat true duals race style would probably be loudest.

How is a turbo going to have true duals?



Loudest would be a downpipe off the turbo and, that's it. Just a down pipe. Extreme sound to the fullest.



Seriously, some of the "louder" exhausts would be the Apex'i N1, or the Cork Sport exhaust. Anything with a straight thru muffler design and big piping.

ok and another question the car sat for 6-7 years with about NO runing at all so it took about a grand to just get it running (that includes all new brake assembly on all four corners) and i'm woried about the seals and stuff should i use a break in oil and like RE-break it in. and if so could you recomend a good oil and a good weight.

I would just change all the fluids, and drive it nice the first few weeks to minimize any damage if anything fails due to old age/sitting, like a hose popping or anything... then as your confidence in the car increases start beating on it more.





Some things to seriously consider replacing, oil cooler lines, coolant hoses (including the heater hoses), clutch hose, and the rubber brake lines at all four corners are a good idea too. Old rubber that experiences decent pressure is a good idea to replace with either new OEM rubber or upgrade to stainless steel braided rubber hose.



Theres also the obvious things like the oil filter, fuel filters, thermostat ....
