What sort of power are you making at the moment? It's going to be difficult going 3.5" all the way with the 02 housing. People are making 450+ on 3" aren't they?

David Buschur tested a 3.5" exhaust, IIRC made well over 600whp on his dyno, and gained NOTHING. You don't read about them because they aren't needed...

IMO, you'd have to be making 800+ whp to need 3.5"...
