Generic Turbo Back set up
Any of you guys have generic turboback setups round here?
My idea was something like this:
http://www.mattrandolph.com/mattspec.htm
Essentially just 3" or 2.5" inch pipe w/ mandrel bends that you can get done at an exhaust shop, and some type of mass produced high flow cat & muffler.
Wanted to get opinions, maybe a ride with people with this setup? sound compared to other $$ setups?

Exhaust
Great pics. This is the type of exhaust system that most people on a budget or tight on funds could do.
Does the system have the O2 sensor after the cat also?
BTW, correct me if I'm wrong, you mentioned Mandrel bends and I only see the typical muffler shop bends on the exhaust.
Mandrel bends use a pretty expensive machine that keeps the same diameter throughout the bend. Hence, higher cost for the exhaust.
Muffler shop bends comperess the bends and makes for decreased diameter.
