Hey guys!
So looking into catbacks and im quoted about 550 for a system which is 2.5" then splits to 2" each side with muflers and tips..
My question is mainly because I find it weird going to 2".. I was just wondering what size does the other systems consist of? I was thinking 2.5" the whole way.

cheers guys

im guessing its for a euro?

coz it goes from single to duel exhaust only half the gasses will be going thru the passenger side exhaust and half to the drivers side.
so u dnt need 2.5" on either side. 2" is plenty

the more mufflers u have the quieter it will be.
cant say if it wil drone tbh, never been in a euro with aftermarket exhaust

Mandrel mild steel, I like the sound of the mild steel ones better.. And easier on my pocket.

Yeah ive never listened to a euro with an exhaust system either tbh. Hoping to get some insite from whose been there done that :)

itll be loud on a cold start and quieten down once its warm
when u step on the gas youll hear the engine more-so

Its called custom fit exhaust centre
Its in my little town. Theres an a1 here but the guy has no standards and fit anything for money. Custom fit more aim to make a good sound.
Anyone that can measure the size of their piping? :)
