What are you talking about exhaust or inlet?????????????? If exhaust 3inch is good inlet piping depends on how much power your after, looks like you need to do a bit more research....... Either that or get a bit more specific

Seems to me that you looked into the question a bit too much next time don't read so fast and catch words like EXHAUST not MUFFLER I mean come on it wouldnt make since to run 2.5 inch piping then use a 3 inch inlet on my muffler would it of course you would run the same piping all the way through! By me asking this question you should automatically know that I am talking about the downpipe and back! I am just getting some opinions on exhaust piping size from fellow HT members next time don't try to be such a know it all!

Thanks for the info GZERO I appreciate it! Thats a hella good thread
