its mr Kyle again

i am not going to able to afford a turbo yet so thanks for the advice u guys gave. it will come in handy when i get the $. my new problem is that my exhaust/muffler has to be replaced. it was old. the pipe rusted inside and it comes loose from the occasional unavoidable speedbump. the muffler makes a terrible rasp in the high rpms. this will not due. it must be replaced. so.....

what would u recommend as far as this situation goes...?

the exhaust and muffler obviously... should i throw on some 4-2-1 DC's on while i'm at it.? anything else? (trying to learn here)

thanx for you feedback

Do u still plan on getting a turbo, b/c if u do you are going to want to go with 3" pipeing to help spool up the turbo quicker. Check out this article if you haven't already done so.
And yes if you are doing your exaust it is always a good idea to upgrade everything headers and all.

thanks for the link to the exhaust page

according to it though i dont want too big of a pipe until i have the turbo, which could be a year away now.

so.....apexi w/ DC 4-2-1 - is that the way u would go on an LS

i should have started a thread that says: Where do i begin

If you buy the a 4-2-1 it will just be thrown away, as you won't be using it when you go turbo.
