Installing yourself?

3 inch would be a waste if you dont plan to cam or go FI. 2.5" is perfect. Aussie Willy clearly has unresolved penis size issues which really aren't helpful when it comes to choosing an exhaust system.

I don't know if 3" is really a waste.... Although it may not give any extra power, it gives a different exhaust note that some people prefer.

On a dyno, 3" will net you slightly more rwkw but it will affect driveability. You will lose a lot of low rev exhaust velocity so initial acceleration will suffer unless you have the cam to need the bigger exhaust.

Mikey has the same system Matt, I think he was suggesting you have a listen to his so you know what yours will sound like.

And Willy, I see most of your posts are filled with sensible and useful information.

Thanks, I try.

I wrote along reply here, but deleted, I don't want to make you feel bad or cry.
BTW, I don't have to make sense or post useful information, I'm not selling any thing but experience.

You're such a wank mate. Keep your useless posts and stupid scenarios to yourself.
