Will the apex n1 dual exhuast work with turbos? - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

Yeah I want to upgrade to a turbo but this is like 2-3 years in the future after my warranty is up.  My next step is getting exhuast, if it I get this exhaust will it work with a turbo kit just fine?

Yup, it will work. But of course so will the regular N1 and the GT Spec.

the n/a piping is like 2.5", but the turbo piping is like 3", which is more suitable for turbo.

Does ne one one here have the gt spec? Its awesome on the supra, and it has massive piping. I was considering doing the gt spec, but I think I will wait for the sr to do that cause ill just lose hp.

What would be the disadvantages and advantages of having 3" piping on my non-turbo'd car until I get a turbo?

u won't be optimizing ur power as well, letting 2 much exhaust 2 slow w/out forced induction which feeds the engine more air basically so u need to use that to help it all out as needed.

Don't you mean letting the exhaust out too slowly?

With bigger piping on n/a, you'll lose more low end, but gain the most high end. The N1 dual doesn't have a turbo version AFAIK, just the N1 single. I don't remember the pipe size, but with two pipes, I lost low end power, just doesn't pull below 2000rpm, but high end is great. You can use the N1 dual for turbo, you won't be getting the high end that a N1 single turbo or GT spec would, but I'm guessing acceleration would be fantastic.
