I have a custom exhaust. It's a 3" with a vibrant muffler. It sounds mean as hell, but it's REALLY freakin loud.

Don't listen to this "not enough backpressure" nonsense. I would definitely say 3" is the limit though. Anything more and you will lose midrange power, anything less and you won't be making optimum peak hp.
3inch does make more peak power,


Is your exhaust a headerback? if so cat-less? resonated? and what kinda of muffler?

thanks
