Hi I need advise
My exhaust is ruined the resonator has holes in it and the centre pipe is pretty much snapped. A new downpipe back is £80 but I was thinking about putting a turbo on the car and straight pipe ?? Would the car still be reliable and how much psi would I need to run to ensure I regain power without blowing the engine?? I don't wonna buy a new factory exhaust as I've lowered the car so it will just rip off again.
Need help regaining power!! (Turbo advise)

You'll gain very little with a turbo on that engine. It's got such little output it's not worth it
Just stick a new exhaust on and be done with it
