ive got extractors with 2" to and just over the diff with one muffler in the middle of the system and 3" straight pipe from the diff back, on my T18 with a 3t its not as loud as I thought it would be.

Personally i wouldn't go any bigger than 2.5-2 1/4 inch as the exhaust gas looses its speed and becomes more turbulant the further down the system it gets.

 

The gasses only cool as they exit from the motor into the headers right? yes! so the system can actually step down in size from a 2.5 inch collector at the end of the headers into the cat then from the cat down to say 2 1/4 inch then to even 2 inch straight through muffler at the end if you like.

As the exhaust gasses cool they compress slightly thus not requiring a large pipe, this is where the smaller diameter pipe helps as it keeps the exhaust gas "air speed" high causing a scavaging effect and drawing out the gasses in the system.

 

I have not yet tried this but i learnt it from a close friend of mine who had old school KE11 sprinter with a 3or4k race motor and other rollas (V8 eater he tells me), he was a mechanic by trade now works for Bosch.

 

I have a 2 inch stainless mandrel bent straight through system from cat back on my ae82 twincam seca with genuine RS*R headers from a jap motor and a 3A racing pod, it droned like a b?*ch at a 80-100ks so i had the crappy stainless autobarn 2.5 inch muffler (not a cannon, hate them) cut up, repacked and narrowed by a friend and its heaps better!

 

That my thoughts

I've tried it twincam- I have 2inch extractors on the 4K through 2" pipe to a 2" resonator, then it leaves that at 1& 3/4" to the end. rob83ke70's idea.

 

I fitted the 2" gear initailly and left the rest stock for 6months, then when I had the cash I changed all that for an instant improvement in low-down power.

 

...and a much nicer growl!
