Air box converted to cone/ good muffler to buy that is not honda ish 700 1992

Read the FAQ or go to turbobricks.com for info on EFFECTIVE airbox mods. The cone air filter is NOT the way to go.

Also, a very inexpensive solution to exhaust is to remove the rear resonator and put a piece of straight pipe there...frees up the exhaust quite a bit. Add whatever tip you want or just use a long enough piece of exhaust tubing. You'll need to fabricate a hanger from a piece of 1/4" rod and clamp the hanger to the pipe so the rear resonator doughnuts will hang the pipe.

I've eliminated the rear resonator on my 90 740 turbo and it works well, but kind of drones on the highway. Next time around I'll replace the whole system including the cat (emissions are kind of high now anyway, cat is prob fused) with a high flow cat and 2.5" exhaust, IPD sells a 409 stainless that looks durable.
