I wouldnt worry about it (a) because after the T the gasses go into 2 x 3" diameter pipes which are far less restrictive than the 2.25" single downpipe preceding it, and (b) the exhaust is far less restrictive than the turbine housing and manifolds before it..

Here's mine - wanted a GTA since I was very little and now I have one. Owned it since april, very happy with it. Azev M's 17 & 18's fitted. Very low miles. Fitted a new alarm and stereo. Upgrading the exhaust and dampers in the year.

No, its not mine. My GTA is a turbo. Mine will not be for sale either for a very long time. I'm based at Ironbridge in Shropshire.

This is my pride and joy! A 1990 V6 turbo. I have owned it for 12 years and it has only done 29,000 genuine miles in that time. It was a showcar at a local Renault garage then my brother owned it then myself. It had all the factory options i believe (Air con, ABS, leather), and only comes out at weekends in good weather! Only mods I have done is add the Azev wheels in the past year. Can't see me ever selling it!

Cheers

Been on 29k for a few years now but will be on 30k this year! Have not used it much last couple of years as now have a nipper and not really practical for taking the mountain of stuff needed, but will hopefully start using more this year as he is a bit older now!
