Real 3" Exhaust

OK. I'm confused and pissed off at all of the CBs out there that are tapered at the cat end.
I wanted to get the HKS Hi-Power CB, but that one is tapered two.

What choice do I have in the area of "Real" 3" exhaust systems. Not Race systems, Street, and nothing obscenly loud.

Let me know what you guys know.

B&B... No tapers, nice deep sound, all polished stainless, 4'' rounded tip doesn't look like the typical coffee can exhaust.

I wouldn't have bought anything else.

GSC has a true 3" exhaust as well.

Jun Bl is the brand of exhaust. PPI is a vendor on this site located in Michigan I believe that sells them.

No, the muffler alone weigh considerably less. I'ts at least 10-15 lbs lighter.

If you want a system thats not obscenly loud for street, go with Greddy EVO2 or Tanabe Medalion Touring. These provide a very sporty tone yet produce very decent amount of power. The neck-down towards the factory cat is really negligible in performance if you plan on staying with stock turbo for awhile.

You have no idea what the heck your talking about bud.

I bought an ebay (afraid at first but everyone kept telling me it was well worth it) and they were right. The ebay exhaust ways CONSIDERABLY less than stock. The muffler is VERY light... there is not cat which saves even more weight... The downpipe vs downpipe weight is very light. The exhaust cost me $260 shipped, no leaks, perfect inside & out. Ive had it almost 3 months now & it sounds GREAT. No raspyness at all, and its not to loud either. I sometimes cant even tell that I have exhaust! But when someone drives my car on the outside, its pretty damn loud. The evo quiets it down alot in the cabin. Highly recommend.

RSR GTII the best one out there measured at 3.24" (i think) on the inside of the pipe, not real loud and the most hp gained from an exhaust system.
