3" Exhaust vs 2.5" Exhaust

RE: 3" Exhaust vs 2.5" Exhaust
Not too much difference on these cars.The s/c'ed cars do move a bit more air, but 2-1/2 is just fine. I would have to say that your better off going a 3" collector into a 2-1/2" all way back for clearance. Not much room on those irs cars!

I had the Stainless Works full 3" exhaust. Longtubes, X pipe and catback made more torque than 2.5" and stock manifolds. Plus it sounds better I think. Little louder and deeper and more choppy at idle.
Me and my buddy have the same exhaust set up now mines 3" his is 2.5" and you can tell the difference.

Clearance troubles. The IRS is very close as it is. It's simply a PIA to fit 3" exhaust in there. Not saying it cannot be done, but it's merely a PIA for what it's worth.
Ohh, sorry, but "seat of the pants" is not one that I call a dyno. Get that sucker up on a machine and see the diff. It could all be in the head. It could also be that your suffering from down low so much that when you do start to produce gain, it feels so much more significant than your buddies smooth power through out.

Lol I simply just stated it made more torque, never said it was a "seat in the pants difference" but thanks for that novel you wrote. I know nothing about Cobras.
I didnt have any problems at all with the 3" fitting either. Im refering to 03-04 Cobra.
