im used to 3.0s and 3" exhausts. Its very nice and can defenatly feel the difference. But im a bit confused if i really need to go that big on a SR20? Would a 2.5 be sufficient up to 350hp at the wheels? Since the lower displacement would mean higher rev to spool correct?

wouldnt a SR20 with a 2.5 exhaust be beninificial in quicker spool, less turbo lag, more quiet and good for up to atleast 300HP at the wheels?

with a smaller exhaust you also get back pressure which can slow down the compresser.

You'll want 3" for 300hp. It will also help you spool up the turbo.

just buy one already designed for the sr20 or turbo 240sx. Do some research, you may find a common relationship nearly all sr20det exhausts are 3" and bigger.
