It should be 2.25 at the manifold and y-pipe. But may have been enlarged from there back. On mine the PO jumpedit up to 2.5 (real crappy weld job) from the y-pipe back. If I can find a place that sells the DIY pipe pieces I want to go all 3 inch right after the manifolds. Mabye even duals.

Yea, but that would be alot of work down the drain when I turbo it. I will probably just build a y-pipe and single exhaust. Local muffler shop want $750 to make a y-pipe, are they nuts?

Man if you want stacks, running them on a Bronco should not slow you down.

Not me. I'll stick to rolling smoke on the hybrids and import "tuners". I think they look silly on a standard fleetside pickup. Looks as out of place as the Subaru does with them. Even worse if it is a single, large diameter pipe directly in the center of the bed. Like some sort of WT unicorn. What is the point of taking away some of the functionality of your truck, just for looks?

The only trucks that can pull off the look are flatbeds or a step side (outside the bed, behind the cab).
