If you're doing it to get power it won't really net you much power especially if you're NA.

Get the largest chambered one you can. How it sounds is a subjective thing. If you heard one and like it, then get it. I have a very large 3" chambered SuperTurbo (#17769) to reduce noise. I'm also using a 3" Car Chemistry insert at the tailpipe too. I probably lost maybe 5hp coming from a 70mm GReddy straight through but I don't care. I've got enough ponies anyways for my own use. Check out the #17748 muffler. Catalog is online.

Agreed... #17748 is the one you need. I'm getting the 2 1/4" inlet one...#17747.

The Borla Tubo doesn't sound bad in my opinion. It's a little louder than the #17748, but it's stainless steel and in your climate, it will last. $100 if you look online.

17793 works great for me. Its 3" and rated for 239 crank HP. Its not too loud even with a 2.5" unresonated b-pipe and a y-pipe.

dynomax sounds good might need to change your resonator though to get the best sound out of it

Some people don't seem to realize that there are several different models of the superturbo. Obviously, if you get the 14" one & you have a y-pipe + b-pipe it will be loud. Getting the 17748 or 17747 which are both 20" will be good enough (as will other #'s that are large enough).

IMHO saying Dynomax sounds like garbage is like saying Nissan is slow

Still haven't quantified your statement. I may be incorrect, we'll see when I have mine installed, but you have made a blanket statement with no proof to back it up.

The Budget B pipe is 2.5" O.D. pipe with a two bolt exhaust flange welded at the end. Unless the muffler is similar to the stock unit with an extension and two bolt exhaust flange, you will need to have a short piece of pipe with a slight bend in it with a two bolt exhaust flange welded on the end to mate up to B pipe. Most of the aftermarket universal mufflers do not have flanges. A qualified muffler/exhaust shop should be able to do it for you.
