Apparently yes and no. For those of us in the states, no, but for those in the area it was designed in, yes. I guess we have different bumpers.

Not sure. I'd like to see a picture of this exhaust from someone in Australia, and in the U.S., just to compare how large the difference is.

pretty sure the agency is not a true 3 inch exhaust. if it were it would not bolt up to the stock cat.

TurboXS, I'd like to add my vote for longer tips and maybe 4" tips. If you make it, we will buy it!

The performance improvement is what sold me. The tips not sticking out didn't bother me none.
Here's a profile shot of it. Any further and the tips can't be seen.

If you are looking for something similar to the Turbo XS then our system would work. Everyone I have talked to that has this system loves the sound.

Yes bolts up to the stock cat or will work with a midpipe. I dont have a car in here with it on, so I cant get a picture of that.

Is it a TRUE 3in system, or does it taper like the rest?

but honestly the velocity will gain with a smooth transition from smaller to larger than an abrubt change also when it abrubtly changes it acts as a megaphone increasing the volume level of the zaust. but i dunno i honestly just don;t have the money for the tubo XS i just can't see dropping a grand on 1 but thats just me. DON;T GET ME WRONG!!! THE EXHAUST IS AMAZING AND I LIKE THE LOOKS. it also shows up all the others in power but like i said 1000+ is out of my budget. i only make 13.50hr unlike alot of people on this board

I think that TurboXS has done an amazing job, the tips just need to extend out a lil farther and be a lil bigger. I love the 4' tips of the greddy.
