I need some suggestion.....buschur 2.5" turboback or just Thermal 3" catback

I'm about to be getting a new exhaust system for my 90 tsi awd. i have the choice between a buschur 2.5" full turboback or just Thermal 3" cat back. I currently have a small 16G turbo ported and clipped 15 degrees, ported 95 manifold, ported 2G 02 housing, walbro 255lph fp, 2.5' Upper IC pipe, 2.5" lower IC pipe, and a manual boost controller. I'm shooting for 110 mph in the 1/4 mile. How does the buschur 2.5" exhaust sound ..is it loud ...droning or what? I know it will perform better than my factory exhuast.

Buschur

Its not too loud,, obviously the more you throw at it the louder it is going to get. (higher boost = more air,, more air = higher exhaust pressures/exiting exhaust,, Higher pressures = louder exhaust ) Its has a nice look, Shiney tip yet not too ricey. I do recomend doing as the VFAQ says for the 2G - paint it with some black BBQ paint. it will look nicer in the long run. the carbon builds up in the tip, then condensation will drip out the ring in the bottom and leave a nasty lookin black drip line down to the back. plus the paint will help protect it. Performance wise most exhausts are going to give you the outcome.
