Kelly, I know a guy that put on a four inch muffler. The same guy that had the bpm downpipe and exhaust I've mentioned before. Holy crap the thing sounded cool. Real low rumble with lots of umph. I'm not sure I like it as much as a really nice 3 inch exhaust, but then again I wasn't standing behind the car, I was sitting in it. I took it for a spin and it sounded nice from inside too, but a silencer is a definate must for trips.

nitrous is fine when used properly. if you use it to offset your lag. meaning use it on the low end and have it tuned properly to stop spraying by the tine your boosting much more than 5 psi.

basically the best way to use nitrous is use a big turbo that is capable of 25-30 psi of boost. now the problem with such a big turbo is that it takes a while for it to fully spool. so if you want low end power you run a small shot of nitrous to spray from a certain rpm range. this is adjusted with your ecu.
so by the time your turbo starts to spool up the nitrous is done spraying. this is the only way I would use nitrous with forced induction. you can spray with lots of boost certain parts will not last very long. this is my humble opinion.
