Yes the **** is 3/3. As for the pipe I used 2.5 with the ends expanded/ flared. Initially I was going to keep single in dual out after a y so I bought a 3/3 ****. Which I also felt would be good down the road for reuse should I ever go with a 3 in system. So when I decided on this latest setup I just matched the **** with the one I already had since he could make fit.
Yep, sure did. I'm not sure why Ram didn't do this to begin with, there's lots of room to do this. Plus it got rid of that restrictive portion of the exhaust.Looks like you cleared your tranny from looking at the pics. Great idea if you ever need to pull it, well done
Forgot u asked about headers. I'm still stock headers and cats (for now [emoji48] ). So I just connected with the stock cats at 2.5. I'll probably Go all out once my warranty is up but that'll be a ways out.
There is only 1 mandrel bender in all of Georgia is what I'm being told by many shops and they all kept saying the same guy. I was told the bender is 40k but that's not eben the expensive part, it takes the tech 1.5 hr every time he needs to swap the dies for different pipe sizes. While that would have been awesome and I could certainly appreciate it, that's more than what I was after. I wanted an upgrade from stock at a bang for the buck mentality. If I was racing where I was concerned about every little bit then yes maybe but I set real expectations for what I wanted and on my dime
I can see how that might not fit the bill for others , so with that in mind onto your next question about the 2.5 /3 pipe. Keep in mind if you did see in my full right up link this started out as a simple muffler swap project that escalated. I simply wanted to replace the it's in my system and and the stock single 3inch line between cays and muffler. So to keep mk y costs down I opted to reuse my existing tips and back dual lines. Also the existing stock cats where 2.5 outlets, so it made sense to keep with 2.5s for the duals. had I swapped to 3's I was told i would not have kept the necessary back pressure that the system needed. And not changing out all the piping n tips behind the mufflers (my doing - costs) that made sense to me to stick with the 2.5s.
