It will likely be too loud for you with just straight pipe. A single high-flow muffler is all you need if you are fabricating a new exhaust system. Probably won't get you any extra power or improve MPG's but it will definitely lower EGT's and let the turbo spool up a little faster. Not a lot of bang for your buck. I wouldn't bother unless you need an exhaust system. If you do need an exhaust system then go ahead, why not. RT
