I need to re-do my exhaust this year because whats on there now took a bit of a beating from my car being so low this year. Currently its a 2.5" y pipe with a catalytic converterand one muffler. Would it be beneficial in anyway to go up to 3" since it is a single exit exhaust on a 4.0L v8 or do you think the 2.5" is the way to stay. The stock system is 2.25" y pipe to duals ---

if 2.5" is getting beat up I dont think doing a 3" would be the best idea, and I doubt youd see any noticeable power gains. I thought you were selling it anyways? ---

its just getting beat up in one spot where it hangs down but there is room for someone more competent to make a better fitting pipe Its for sale but so far all I have gotten are trade offers for cars im not really interested in trading it for lol. Built WRX, 350z, GS300, 67 corvette. if someone offered up an audi A4 or S4 i’d be all over that ---

2.5" exhaust flows up to around 500rwhp so, no need to jump to a 3". Its a small displacement motor anyways. ---

toyota have a huge tendancy to lose power outside of stock tolerances , like drew said no real advantage to doin it besides that any real power gains are in the cat forward section of those
