Hi there,I have built many 4AGTE's before and always used 3" and never had a problem(with a catalytic converter).Just thought id share my experiences.
3" mandrel bent exhaust
I have been building my car up of the last couple of years now and there are a couple of things that I have done with regards to mods early in the build that are now a little over the top. One of them is the 3" mandrel bend exhaust that I have on the car. The exhuast comes with a Hooker Aero Chamber muffler that is pretty much straight through and it the complete exhaust from basicall the base of the fire wall to the rear of the car. This would be well suited to a high power turbo application I have got photos of the exhaust in the build thread but I won't have proper photos until I have got the new 2.5" system fitted up.
Cost wise I am thinking around $250 for just the pipe work or $350 with the rear muffler (which is worth $250 just by itself) All this stuff it pretty much brand new as the car has never been driven and only run for maybe a total of 2 hours since it was fitted. Happy to post anywhere are the buyers expense.
Cheers

id love it but in syd
I realise that it won't be a massive problem but I just don't need it and I will have more clearance all round if I go with a 2.5" system. I am only running a 2.5" dump pipe as well so not really needed. I am only going to be running around 140rwkw through my setup at the most so it was over kill.

Yeah it is not going to be very police friendly I am afraid without another muffler fitted, it certainly flows well though
Fair enough.My 3" exhaust cost me $750 without the muffler,so anyone who wants a bargain exhaust this is it guys.
any ideas of transporting this to syd. im driving down to melb at the end of march for holidays, dont know if its a wise idea to put it in the car or not
Cost wise I am not too sure, it will unbolt and fit in your car just fine though. when are you coming through could be a cheap option. I should have it out next week so I can take some proper photos then and measure it up for postage. It wouldn't be more than $100 to send though I don't think but the muffler is pretty heavy.
Cheers
Paul
