Exhaust tips

Does anyone know where i could find some nice 3" exhaust tips for some duals i'm planning to run on my Bronco. I've looked around and can only find 2 1/2" tips. I figured some deisel exhaust manufacturer would make them. If anyone could show me a link or something I'd appreciate it. Thanks

I hear you galaxiefiveohoh, i think i'm going to go with 2 1/2" exhaust because 3" duals wouldn't provide enough back pressure. Hey, restorit, cool site, thanks for the info.

Exhaust tips

No problem..... lots of good stuff (can't wait 'til I can afford some of it!). Good luck with your duals. A word to the wise.... don't run the tailpipes straight out the back, under the bumper, like you see on so many pickups. Run them out of the sides, before or after the rear wheels. If you have them arranged to point straight back, and you run with your rear window open, at all (even just cracked), the airflow passing around your truck will cause the exhaust fumes to roll straight back against the rear of your truck and in through the rear window. Running them out of the sides allows the airflow to "grab" the gases and suck them away from the truck. No use in going to all that work to end up with a nice truck that gives you a headache and makes you puke every time you drive it!
