Exhaust before turbo?

ok, nice, so the turbo kit should come with everything I need, and then all i've gotta do is ensure that I can connect it to my existing exhaust system? ok that's better than i thought. thanks a lot guys.

yeah I did think the cat would be too restrictive, is this still the case even if I got a hi-flow cat? not sure what it's like over there but we have a yearly MOT test here to check out yer car and the cat would need to be on for the emissions test, I can't be assed to buy a new cat anyway so I think i'll just take it off and put it back on when i take it for the MOT.

just 2 more questions... is it possible to have a 3" exhaust system that is as free-flowing as possible but isn't hella loud?! this must be all down to the muffler i suppose? so is it just a case of finding a really good muffler?

and finally... anyone know of a company over there that could export a system to the UK? cos I can't find jack over here! the best i've found (and the only place that will build me a custom one) costs insane amounts of money and they can't bend piping above 2", how much does that suck.
