Default Sounds like you have one...
But pro's are more power and faster spool.. Con... well.. there is the chance of a CEL, and some people say that they lose a little bottom end..

Cons - higher credit card bills and poss. of not passing state inspection.

Default No.. turbo back means from the turbo back...
You're talking test pipe... Exhausts which are from behind the catalytic convertor are cat-backs. You've replaced your DP and cat, so it's a turboback.

If you do want to do a test pipe.. you'll throw a CEL likely... and 02 sims don't work.

Will a slight exhaust leak between the turbo and test pipe (i have a MIL eliminator) cause a CEL?
