Well guys after much debate on this forum with part one of this thread I went ahead and did the final exhaust mod. I had a 2.5 in straight pipe where my cat was and was considering just changing my s-pipe for a 3in custom pipe. Well I went a head and switched the pipe form my y-pipe to my Borla catback into a 3in custom pipe. The car sounds a lot louder and deeper now and its weakened out the rasp so thats not as bad now. Ive also noticed a slight gain in power than before. Many said Id notice nothing and that I shouldnt do the mod but I did and I think it was worth it overall. It only cost me 50 bucks to get it done.

Re: Final exhaust mod part II
looking forward to a clip.
i remember your original thread, and i stil find it hard to belive you gained anything you can feel by changing such a small section of pipe, but im glad your happy with it.
there is a saying..your exhuast is only as good as it's smallest point, so i guess going to a 3" S pipe over a 2.5" might indeed do a little.
were you cammed when you posted the question originally? i think that would change things, that cam is going to want to breathe alot more than a mostly stock car would.1998 bright red camaro ,M5 ,Y87 ,stock<br /><br />Originally posted by Rune:<br />If it smells like a turd and looks like a turd, chances are its probably not a candy bar.
