the exhausts are often sold in separate sections,cat back is literally from the catalyst back,then you could have a sport cat or de cat in front of that,then you often have larger downpipes that then go onto the turbo.

Get the 3" downpipe aswell if your doing exhaust, piper, blueflame and pipewerx are all options worth considering. Induction either panel or cone, and if your wanting the top end power then also consider front mount cooler to replace the 2 side mounts to keep the power consistant,id get this lot fitted first then remaped to stage 2 with it all on.
You are going to be in the region of £800-1200 for full exhaust depending on what you go for.
