3inch

[Viggen_93]

so i was wondering what is the definition of a FULL 3inch turboback. i was thinkin of getting the 3inch catback from JSP. and buy the 3inch downpipe from Geniune Saab. Would that be a FULL 3 inch turbback exhaust system right there?

You gotta have a 3" hi-flow cat or test pipe to be a "true" 3" setup. But yeah, Downpipe + Cat (or testpipe) + Catback = Full Exhaust

Theres 3 parts to our exhaust system.

The Downpipe
Intermediate Pipe / Flex Pipe
Cat Back

Say you get the 3" DP and a 3" cat back, you will still have to replace the flex pipe with a 3" to be a true 3" turbo back.

JSP and JT 3" come with the all the 3 parts to make it a true 3" turbo back unit.

you might as well get the whole thing from jsp, i would get one too but im scraped for money

I'm getting a custom 3" downpipe welded up for me this weekend by a Saab guy in Minneapolis. I'm ditching the cat, and we're also removing the center muffler.

The saabsport exhaust flows well enough that you don't need a true 3" turbo back until you're pushing 350-400hp.

Yeah i want it in stainless steel but its just way to much but i guess ill just save up and buy it anyway. is aluminized steel any good too? its the same stuff right?

That's a Mitsu exhaust. the cat's further back. that's it in the middle of the piping.

Yeah, that's my Buschur exhaust, I was just showing what an entire true 3" turboback looks like. And with a good muffler, it's not that loud. Even better is no Cat, but that's illegal

Full 3" = 3" piping all the way?

Ah!

Jak Stoll builds his 3" systems in stainless steel or aluminized/coated steel. I went with stainless from the turbo back because I intend to keep the car for a while and I live in WI - the US capital for salty/rusty cars.

In either case, he does fantastic work and I would recommend him highly.
