Thats pretty awesome! As endGame noted its literally very simple shouldnt cost more than the flange itself. Tell you guys what, as we carry the full Vibrant catalogue, anyone wanting to make it a 3" inlet we will include the 3" flange and gasket for free with your purchase of a Magnaflow catback from us, evolutionm members only. Just note it when ordering and we will update it on our website. If there are enough requests we just may have a 3" adapter made for everyone, something to consider
The deal just gets better and better.

Can anyone confirm that the pipes coming out of the muffler are still 3" before they get to the tips?

Hard to tell from the pics, but looks like they are smaller diameter from the main 3" input pipe. To me personally that does not matter. I'm no expert but I figure if you split 3" in two you just need 1.5" for each half.

Installed mine yesterday, thought I'd be able to do it myself, but had to take it to a shop so they could heat up the old bolts before they'd come off.

Impressions:
Sound is perfect, just what I was hoping for, just a tiny bit "louder/throatier" during acceleration, and indistinguishable from the stock exhaust cruising at both 55 and 70. Definitely does not sound like a "fart can" and no "droning" at all.

Antarius can you confirm if the pipes coming out of the muffler are 3" before they get to the tips? It's hard to tell from the pics because it some angles make it look like 3" but others do not.

the pipes between the muffler and the tip is actually 2.5" for each side. it's by all means more than sufficient.

Got the neck-down piece replaced last night at EvoDynamics in Lewisville (thanks, Denver, you are a welding artist).

Full 3" Catback for $525 total - not bad.

This looks good. I wonder if cvr will offer this exhaust with the 3" flange and pipe already welded on. That would be cool .

i'm going to add two (! ) resonators into the piping by this weekend, and should eliminate the droning altogether.
Does it still drone after you added resonators?
