If you have a necked down exhuast (meaning it necks down from a full 3" exhuast tube to a 2.4 " at the rear cat ) that creates turbulence and back pressure in the system. A staight exhuast is the highest flow. These marketing companies are more interested in the shape of the exhuast tip than in the dyno numbers.

Hey AL, yestedray i went to a shop and had the reducer chopped off and made the flange 3". Honelstly i dont feel any difference at all!! I think i just waisted my money. Not sure if i dont feel anything b/c i still have fact DP. I dont think the reducer was a big deal

I have the Magnaflow installed!
Great sound, hella different car now, and people this exhaust is 80mm not 76 so its bigger than 3 inches, at the neckdown it is 3 inches, all the rest is like 3.15 all the way. Oh and no I didnt pay $1000+ for it. I paid exactly what Buschur's catback could be priced if shipped to PR.
