Question about a turbocharged exhaust

[hunterkw]

I have a turbocharged 99 mustang and i had a few questions about the exhaust.
The guy who installed it said i could never really get a loud sound because i cant put x pipes on it and such. is that true? am i not able to put like longtube headers and a x-pipe on it? can i only do cat backs? I know the turbo has its own exhuast pipe that leads into my dual exhaust...but wont i loose HP that i could get from a set of longtube headers and a x-pipe? I do have a dumpout valve that makes it sound mean...but it smells like striaght gas so i dont like to leave it off all the time...just wondering....thanks guys

btw. i have a hellion turbo kit..its really awesome...only thing i hate is that its queit...

I will give you my upr cats x-pipe and magnaflow magnapack for your turbo
I wish I could get turbo no money

How much hellion turbo cost you with everything and install ?

Turbos act like mufflers basically. I don't really know how hellions are set up but if they have mufflers you could remove those and pray it's not annoying.

Modular Depot quoted me around $7,000-7,500

if you want loud, you can just run straight pipes after the down pipe. it wont be as loud as a straight pipe'd N/A GT but it would still be loud

i paid 10,000 installed with all the upgrade kits..like the front suspension and such...

so what you guys are saying you should be able to put a x-pipe and all on it?

I dont think an x pipe would work on a hellion turbo kit, simply because its a single turbo and uses a Y pipe instead of an X or H. If you had gone with a twin seput than an x pipe could be used.

ah yeah i know with the single turbo kit has its own exhaust pipe that leads into my cars exhaust...using the y-pipe so i guess i am stuck with only cat backs huh?
