Finally, an exhaust system I can rationalize paying for. Exactly what I've been wanting. Guess what I'm buying myself for christmas?

The muffler is less than $100 and an exhaust shop will weld a piece of 3" to replace the resonator for $60ish. So basically the same system for $160. If youre just wanting a 3" system the buy any muffler and have a shop install it. It will sound and perform the same as the one you posted.

Anything but quality stainless will be gone in a few years up here.
I'd do as someone mentioned and get a SS muffler and have a SS piece welded in to replace resonator and still have all stainless.

That's kinda what I'm debating. Haven't made up my mind yet.

the stock system is not 3"............. what are you guys talking about? Welding in a muffler is NOT the same as this kit.

If the MBRP system were stainless vs alumized id be in................. i think 4" is way overkill but the price of the diamond eye has my interest because its stainless.


Id prefer 3" though.

It is 3 after the flex pipe, its 2 1/2 from flange to flex. I'm with you, although, I like the sound the larger pipe systems usually make as they are usually deeper.
