3" is overkill for your setup.

3" is to big for your set up. Until you get into deep breathing strokers and the like, you don't need 3" exhaust.

That 3 inch exhaust probably sounds good but its killing your low and mid torque,guaranteed.Your car would feel noticeably better with 2-1/2". [ December 05, 2012, 11:07 PM: Message edited by: 50DADDY ]
