I want to pull high figures in the end and have something that will help me get down the strip faster so loosing som low down power is not the biggest issue?

Forced induction that's a different story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a 2.5" single system and have no complaints, but I am thinking a 3" single would be the way to go now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're only doing a few little mods like F6 snorkels and a tune then I would go the 2.5" system. If you are drag racing then the first mod youd want is 4.11s, which on an N/A with a 3" would more than compensate for the loss down low. For optimum benefit of a 3" I'd want 4.11s with a hi stall if auto, and a minimum of an edit, CAI of some description. Underdrives would also be beneficial too. But as mentioned before, drag racing, go the 3" but make sure you get 4.11s and a good tune as well or you will go no where.

Guest Guests Posted 29/04/07 09:26 PM Share Posted 29/04/07 09:26 PM You'd want to go all out to need a 3" system. It would be good to go 3" after about 210rwkw, the drown would be my worry about a system the size of 3".Since we'll soon see if 210rwkw can be gained N/A witha 2 1/2" I'd leave the 3" alone.
