Any recommendations on what I should do....I know im doing 2.5 inch downpipe


IMO go with 3" exhast & downpipe. it's tight but it fits and you'll get better performance and lower EGT's to boot.

My mk3 'state has a side exit...



The back boxes (muffler) were rotton and when I removed them I was left with an exit  pipe spinning in the centre box - I just rotated to point sideways and extended it 8 inches with a bit of stainless.

Ghetto solution and saved me over £100 in replacement exhaust bits.

Mines an AZZ sleeper too except it never wakes up.......except that the engine will stay stock until it becomes a donor for my mk1.

Its done up alright.....running 30lbs from a T3.
This weekend im working on a 2.5inch downpipe for it along with a side exit exhaust (straight pipe)....not sure ifs its gonna be side exit 100% yet.....but I think so. And then I want to install the srt-4 intercooler I have with but I need to modify the endtanks.

If you were to lower the boost to say around where the T3 is more efficient couldn't you theoretically make more power then you currently are making?

I think you may have a point there. My T3 is presently running around 17psi and seems to love it. The Honduh drivers, however, do not.
As for the Caddy exhaust, I'm all about stealth, so mine looks like this.
