I was just going to get 5"cat welded in to stock exhaust but have noticed some rattling inside centre muffler and thought stuff it may as well replace the whole catback. I want to go 3" and wanted to get it done close to where I am getting it tuned (CV Performance). Carline is 2k from CV and at $650 for 3" exhaust it is tempting. Only have budget of $800 for exhaust fitted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're chasing over 300rwkw, then you are gonna need more then just a tune and exhaust. Edited 07/04/10 12:44 PM by BensXR6T Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I ended up just going with 3" for now as no second handies available around my area. Got car tuned and was happy with result, a reliable 287.5KW. Car made low 300's but was running out of fuel at 314KW so detuned it to be safe. Looks like a fuel pump will be my next upgrade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
