I have a Vishnu standard series.Complete TB.

I like it because it replaces the factory 02 housing(helps spool up) plus the quality and fit is better than any other I 've looked at.

There are others out there that probably perform just as well for a little less $, but quality and performance combined was what I was lookin for. Plus it sounds sweet.

I use an Apexi GT Spec downpipe which is simply beautiful, comes with the heat wrap kit and connects to my custom 3" straight pipe (stainless steel). It does not add any extra noise to my exhaust note albeit a bit more softer. i did not dyno this mod by itself so i can post any figures.

I have the Buschur 3" Downpipe..

It will be mated to a stainless O2 housing (working on who is going to make it for me since I need 2 O2 bungs)

According to most opinions, the stock O2 housing is adequate for the stock turbo.. My gut feels differently, but I can't have any true opinion until I try it.

stock 02 housing is more than big enoguh for the stock turbo....there is not even much room for porting on it, just some basic cleanup to get it all matching well.

Same goes for stock manifold

Have the Buschur DP. Close fit, which has since been made less close, but it fits nonetheless.

Actually you dont lose any performance by going with a full 3inch turbo back exhaust without resetting the AF ratio. The power band is just moved up the tach. In the new SCC they use a RMR DP and RMR exhaust. They gained 20 hp and they only gained 4 lbft of torque.

I went with the AVO downpipe because I was buying the AVO cat-back exhaust. I figured they would work well together. They put both on at the same time so I didn't get to drive the car with just the downpipe; there are a couple of magazines that have evaluated the AVO downpipe though. BTW, I went with the AVO because I wanted a not-too-loud, good exhaust.
