And some are meant to last. My 323 has stock original internals with a slightly bigger turbo on 16 psi has 190k and was rallied for a few years. Still runs strong and hopefully will untill spring when it gets torn down. I had 6+ 20psi spikes due to a bad boost controller as well
Keep in mind I'm talking rally not autox rally is rediculously hard on any car

Let me know how that goes, because for some reason my car doesn't hold boost when I try and get it tuned..

Getting into the subject of the restrictive exhaust I thought thought the muffler was pretty restrictive too?
Can't decide on either adding a y pipe to my pope dp for when I want to have fun and leaving the stock exhaust for dd or just do 3" all the way back with stock muffler

Reason i thought the catdelete could casuse fuel consumption was I had a bad o2 sensor on the cat with my civic and because it was not reading the proper air flow, it made the ecu think that it needed more fuel. Hence we are on this subject, i know our cars are pretty reactive to larger exhaust pipes, but from an engineering stand point, 2.25 is optimal to powerbands of 230hp. I read it online somewhere. So just curious if 2.25 is optimal for us howcome we still go 3inch? Its kinda contradicting each other.

We go 3" because our "LONG TERM" goal is to achieve 350-400hp.

How do you like it during normal driving?

There is a bit of lag while shifting under 3.5k normal driving, but nothing to noticeable.
Yeah it's pretty loud, but it's not annoying. I have the Vibrant Race Muffler which sounds nice and aggressive while driving compared to your average 4 banger.
