i was just wondering if any one had the RK sport dual exhaust and what the thought of it, how it sounds, looks and so on, also i was wondering if it could handle a hahn race-craft stage 3 turbo setup

i would say not to get it. people say its raspy, and if your going turbo you are going to want largewr piping than what comes with it. you are better off going to and exhaust shop and having one made

Agreed 100%
If you're running a turbo setup, you would more than likely want something atleast 2 1/2"
OR
you could be crazy like me and run an open downpipe and be spool happy LOL

You gonna stay open-downpipe or eventually get the exhaust completed? Bet that's loud as hell!
I love my open downpipe, sounds freakin mean. Just imagine a Sunfire with the sound of a V8 Camaro that makes occasional hissing noises and loud whistles lol Yes, you'd love it too
I'll run open downpipe as long as I can without getting in too much trouble.

Open pipe is the best way with turbo. Least amount of back pressure the better. its not crazy at all.
I am running no cat, no resonator, 3" o2 housing into a dump right under the rear seat 3" pipe on my SRT-4. Added almost 27 to the wheels by itself on the dyno.
But you sure as hell dont wanna think about doing that until u get the turbo.

I've just gotta say this.
That dual exhaust stuff is mad goofy looking on a car with 4 cylinders. There is a line where your car starts looking like a rediculous rice rocket and that crosses it, but enough of my opinion..
Now performance wise, having two pipes coming out of your cavalier is also completely useless. It's also a couple more pounds of weight to bog you down. Just say no! Get a wide pipe and a nice tip!
And NJHK.. i'd LOVE to hear that. you've gotta record some audio!
Sadly, no more..

Not all cavy's or fires a 4 bangers, there are a few V6's and atleast one V8 floating around.
I have the Magnaflow dual exhuast, and I love it. It sounds great and I think it looks good with the 03+ taillights. But if I was in your position, I would get custom bent 3 inch pipes. 2.25 just wont cut it.
so a 3" all stainless exhaust would do the trick then?? but would it clear the rear axle?? should i put a resonator on it??? and what brand hi flow cat would be best??

Listen to everyone else, its to small and I think thats the worst sounding exhaust for a j body.

if your investing the money in a stage 3 find a good exhaust shop and go 3" all the way. 3" will clear the rear axle if they know what their doing.
my bro has the rksport dual, and I don't like it. he loves it.
for N/A I always reccomend the Thermal research exhaust, nice low sound.

rksport exhaust sounds downright AWFUL. I had it. Don't buy it.

Have any pictures of the Thermal installed?
