    3" exhaust

    Hey guys,

    what gains would I see with a 3" exhaust on my car? Is it worth it or should I drop to a 2.75"?

    Cheers

      Well going for a single box system the same as the guy has done to his skyline, tis a local tuning company called Blueprint that build manifolds, exhausts and tune up lots of different cars, he is working an a Golf at the moment to. Great chap who has given plenty of advice and is helping me work on a rear brake solution using rear RS2 calipers on the CQ20...... Hope it goes well.

      Noticed any performance gains?

        With the stock engine and turbo, I'll answer with a definite YES !
        Every time the turbo started spooling over 10psi, there was a noticeable but not huge difference !

            What about handbrake? are you using a seperate h/brake caliper?

                Definately keep us informed on how you get on with the rear brake conversion Azman. would be good to get the Rs2 or 996 rear calipers to fit and work somehow. Good luck.
