That does make sense major. It may be in my head but I still say it runs better running it through the muffler!

I plan to do a straight pipe on mine. Probably a 3" downpipe and 5" from there on out. The exhaust is stock now.

I'm guessing the 5" will have a real nice sound to it..

I'll probably do up the whole exhaust when I fix the exhaust leaks in the system. I may go ahead and overhaul the entire system at the same time. Have the manifolds machined, get bellowed uppipes, new downpipe, and the rest of the system. Might was well do it all while I've got it apart. It'll be a while from now. I may gut the cat soon just for fun and because it's free.
