For those with custom exhausts - what size piping did you use and which brand mufflers?
I know very little about this topic, but am curious to know what people with custom exhausts decided to go with and what kind of power they're seeing from their setups. I'm thinking 2.5" test pipe and 2.5" downpipe, then split into two slightly smaller diameter sections going to the mufflers. Looking for a mellow sound (stock-like is fine with me), but as much HP as I can get. Any suggestions?
Thanks!
Thanks!

Not that many here.
If you're after hp, just get the Thermal Race + test pipe and be done with it. It is loud as hell though.
High hp gains and mellow sound do not go together btw.

What else would you like to know? :-)

The longer the split, the better you'll be...
