Then a 3" all the way back to the y pipe. I don't know if I should have the 3" after the y or 2 1/2". I wont something that sonds mean a hell that you can hear me coming. I don't wont any rasspy sound!!!!! I don't have any idea what mufflers sound assome and mean. I wont it loud but to sound realy good. I won't the most bang for my buck. I spent way way to much on the Borla that sound nice but quiet. I wont to sell it and get some thing diffrent. Were would I go to get it done. I don't wont to spent a whole lot of money.

If you want loud get 3" pipes to a 2.5" split. A 2.25" split will perform just as well, but be a little quieter. Definately get a resonator, or it will sound like poo.

I have a 3" DP with cat attached coming off this weekend, it's in the classifieds. I was going to put it up on the national board in about a week.

If you are doing headers you're going to want 3", so the collector meets up.

Are the Magnaflow mufflers raspy? how big is your piping and down pipe? do you have a resonator? thank for the info.

It's the general consensus that Magnaflows have the best overall sound. Flows are the loudest; and I like them a lot, but not on GP's. About the best sound I've heard is with a long resonator and NO mufflers. Deep, loud outside the car, and not raspy. Not loud as being pulled over loud, but hearing you coming loud.

4" round if you're lowered 6" round will fit if you're at stock ride heigth. I've seen them on Ebay too, but this place you at least get the part #'s to go shopping with. IIRC this is the unit TOG reccomends.
