Well, if your check my profile you see that I was suposed to get the header put on today. Didn't happen. Since I just have the top, I've got make the rest and I ran into some problems today. No rods for my uncle's plasma cutter, and no saleen for my dad's tourch. Freakin sucked. I need to cut the flange out of the steel. I've got a question for the one's who know. I am putting this on with my stock sized exhaust, the 2 inch. I don't have a resinater, and I have a strate through muffler. I thought the size would help keep the noise and price of my exhaust down. My dad seems to think that it's a really bad idea to leave the 2 inch pipe there. Should I go ahead and up for the 2.5, or is it not worth the cost? I'm not sure how much it will cost, but I might go ahead and make it while I'm getting the pipes bent Thursday for the collector. I'll post pics when I'm done.

I run 2.5" on my exhaust, but i was using nitrous and was flowing more exh. As for you straight through muffler, take my advice, ditch it and get one with baffles. Once you get the header on there and resinator off, you're going to sound like a ****ty honda. I would know, I chopped out my resinator and am running a straight through muffler. It's not horribly bad, but I'd def do it different if i did it again.
