3" is plenty for street fun.. run the cutout when you wanna get "zesty" as farmer Brown would explain.

That exhaust looks good man, thanks for the pics. Is that aluminized steel?

I'm planning a magna flow 7x14 3" muffler,  aluminized steel to keep costs down, and a dmh 4" cutout. All v banded together with a big fat import style exhaust tip lol.

That exhaust looks familiar. Is it an ebay stainless 3" kit?

Just ordered some 3" stainless piping, v bands and some stainless hangers. Figured I might as well go full ricer and polish the crap out of it too. Going to have a polished exhaust on a car with faded/ chipping paint lol. Thanks again for the input y'all!

Another thing that I am curious about is tig welding stainless. What kind of filler rod do I need? Can 304 be welded to 409 without doing anything special? Should I go ahead and buy a mild steel v band flange for the cut out side or can I just use a mild steel filler rod to weld to mild to the stainless?

Just took the car out to test the boost controller settings and get a 0-60 vbox time. Ran a 4.52, shifting low and slow. Peak boost was something like 19.4psi lol. Have a go pro vid and the vbox data but the vid is too long and I don't know how to post vbox data.

Should be able to get some more testing done sometime next week.
