Re: exhaust options

option 2 more yay option 3 nay They all will work but, you said a little more performance and the H-pipe IMO would be the way to go. RJ22 |

Re: exhaust options
I think you will acomplise that by going with the 3in exh. you stated the H-pipe will also lower the tone some IIRC.

Re: exhaust options
I agree with RJ22...so do I get taco bell too...?
 If you still need mufflers, check out Spin Tech. They have some really wicked sounding units

Re: exhaust options
Option 2 is what I just did with mine, looks good and sounds great.

Re: exhaust options
Option 2 for sure.
I think the only question you have is whether you go with an H-pipe the way you have it diagramed or extend it out a little further and go with an X. Both configurations accomplish the same thing but some people will argue that that an X is better because of the way the exhaust is directed. I went with an X and have been very happy with it. |
