Mugen doesn't make an exhaust manifold with a 3" outlet.

ROFL!! Good one Todd.

Are you sure you are measuring the inside diameter of the pipe? 3 inch on anything besides a hardcore build just seems stupid. Bigger doenst always = better.

Post pictures, 3" seems effin' retarded unless he was making about 300whp, and even more retarded if was, he wouldn't be using a Mugen header.

Like said before, definitely a modded header, Mugen doesn't make anything over 2.5"

That's what I would do, did you not ask or see this header before you bought it?

I believe SMSP sells Carsound high-flow cats with custom flanges and lengths. Contact him and see what he can do for you.

no the header came on the motor as when i bought it as a swap. I am done with the swap but need someway to connect the downpipe to the exhaust. Where can I get a CATALYTIC CONVERTER like the one I am looking for because I have searched over the web for a while and found nothing helpful. Does anyone know?
