[hawgs]

no

[speedy-v6-camaro]

If your going to pay to get an exhaust done...go to at least 2 3/4" if not 3".

just go to a different mechanic. He obviously don't want your business.

I agree [img]graemlins/thumbsup.gif[/img]

I'd ask him who's paying for it, then tell him to suck your left nut. If he doesn't like that just go somewhere else.

Midas gave me the same bull**** when I had my muffler installed. Just remind them who the customer is and that they actually have to work for their money.

thanx for the confidence, do u guys think there will be to much backpressure with a 2 1/4 pipe?

[99CamaroV6]

he's probably telling you that because he doesn't know what to do with the post-O2 sensor that's placed inside the 2.25" stock I-pipe area (or for those who like to call that part the "S-pipe")

yeah... 3" all the way

[SixBanger]

Do 3". If you are just putting around town 2.5" might be fine, but if you want some serious passing power, I would go with 3"!

[FuryCharger]

just called the bastard and got him to put in a 2.5" so we will see how that flows

[Devilboy28]

2.5" will be fine.
