Straight through pipe like on mine.

Turbo spins up quicker too for better performance.

Run more boost, remove the air box,  bend a couple of fins on the turbo.  If you don't want the engine to blow up then you can get whistlers for your exhaust on e-bay.

Alternatively you could clean the turbo out (actually worth doing).

How do you clean the turbo out? Managed to do the intercooler on mine, is it harder?

I filled the bottom of the comnpressor housing with WD40 and used a toothbrush to clean the oikly gunk off the vanes 'till I could see shiny metal in there, then I soak up the poo with a rag and let it dry out.  Since doing it the car did seem a tiny bit better to drive but the turbo was noisier at full boost (it's tweaked).  I recon the extra weight of the crud makes it harder for the turbo to spin up and makes the vanes less efficient hence less boost.

But it does whistle a bit.
