i was a big fan of the 3inch exhaust until i had to live with it on a day to day basis. The drone was absurd in my car. That's why i switched to a stock exhaust with a 3inch electronic cutout. I will never ever consider going 3inch single again. Not until someone designs with a Helmholtz resonator to cancel out the insane amounts of drone within the 3-4.5k rpm range.

Custom is expensive. Well to me at least. I have been quoted around 800-900.
I bought my HKS Ti for 320, then the rest was 350 worth for stainless pipe, and vbands. Thats 670 for a full 3". I have a shop that does all my tuning and most of my fab work 3 min from my house.

i am leaning more towards the greddy tic due to the sound and the fact i already have a 70mm test pipe. I guess I am not too worried about max power but it would be nice to get as much as I can.

Sarek, what's your exact setup? I wanted something super quiet (well, as possible with 3") with no droning.

So I was going to do 3" intermediate with TWO resonators, and then split into two 3" mufflers. I hadn't considered dropping down to 2.5" at the split. I was thinking of just using Magnaflow components for the whole exhaust.

I am looking into either getting a 3" megan exhaust or the 70mm Greddy tic for my inline pro kit however I am on the fence. I have a 70mm test pipe and I may just keep that. Like you I am r
no don't do it.



ASURA is the only way to go.

Cool thats basically what I built, didn't listen to it yet tho. Hoping for a decent sound but not disturbing loud. And great flow ofcourse.

Just get a decently quite exaust and a 3" E-cut. Get the best of both worlds. It's what Inline did for me and I haven't received a ticket for a year and a half.
