Help with custom exhaust (Exige S)

Hi I am new to the forum and have a question to all the experts I have a 07 exige s and I want to do a custom exhaust on it but want to know if there is any thing I need to know before trying this, like what exhaust size is right for the exige s and if any one has recommendations on mufflers id like to know that to. And if any one has done it id like to see pictures. I just got done making a rear eliminator and now need an exhaust I want it to exit on the passenger side next to the license plate.

The exhaust for supercharged engines needs to have a larger inner diameter, see the text on the 2bular site:

2Bular - Performance Exhausts

I have an 8x24 GT3 2bular system and I like it quite a bit. It's fairly quiet, but the smaller diameter mufflers (7x24, 6x24, etc.) make more noise if that's what you want.

Sector 111 also has some appropriate mufflers for supercharged engines:

Any Luck with Straight Pipe?

Do you know of anyone who has run a straight pipe from the header out? I know it will be stupid loud. But, will I lose power and have warning lights appear? Any video on the sound? I have an 07 Exige S
