its fine if you use the right size and stuff, 2 1/4 is pretty good for cars with minor upgrades,anything bigger, turbo, sc, you should go with at least 2 1/2 o 3 inch, hope that helps you out, plus its usually a few hundred dollars cheaper than buying whole cat back exhaust systems.

the gains will be about the same. When going with a custom route. Make sure you get a resonator in there. the resonator takes alot of the "buzzy" noise away if use correctly

I have 2.25" custom piping mandrel bent, with an 18" resonator, mated up to a 2.25" inlet/outlet straight/thru muffler. It looks stock, sound stock, and flow is awesome. I love it, and it only costed me 200.
