    Opinions on exhaust setup

    with a megan header, magnaflow high flow cat, cheap catback (only using for piping), would a 3" universal oval exhaust be loud?

    the 12" long, 8" oval, and 3" in/out.

      word. yeah, and it can't be any worse than my current setup. header to straight pipe. no resonator, no cat, anything. just random piping we found around my old schools auto shop. yikes.


      edit: oh, and no muffler lol

        By the looks of the muffler, you should definitely be okay. I'm pretty sure it's not hollow, with the size and all. Maybe you'll even be lucky, and it'll get rid of enough sound for you to hear the intake like mine did. I went from the header, straight back to a Raptor muffler. Wasn't loud at all, believe it or not. http://www.holley.com/50054FLT.asp

            Why do you need a 3" exhaust?

              3 inch is too big for a stock motor. If you are talking about switching out the piping too, you will loose torque. If you are talking about putting that on the stock piping, it will be a waste anyway because you will need to have some kind of increaser made to go from the smaller stock pipe to the 3"

                well, only the muffler would be 3". all the piping would be 2 1/4.. MAYBE, but doubtfully, 2 1/2.

                should i just go with the 2 1/2" in/out muffler? i really don't think it would make that much of a difference after the intermediate piping anyways... only thing that would really change is the sound.

                          I made perfect sense:
                          1.) READING YOUR POST MADE ME LAUGH.
                          2.) YOU CAN ONLY HAVE ONE HEADER ON A CB7.

                            I have this setup almost to a T. It sounds great driving around town, but when you get on the iterstate, its LOUD. I don't care though I love it
