so I'M making the Cut
so im going to be going with a strate pipe no cats with my 93 ss.
But im not sure if to go with the 3" or the 2.5....
I have 2.5 in and 3" out magnaflow that i can stick on that i got used for cheap. So im thinking cost in mind going with the 2.5 is going to be cheaper.
But having 3" is so nice... but is it going to be to loud
in any case its going to be a turbo back no cats...

Yes the 3" would be nicer, but extremely loud!

Ummmm.....3.00" catless DP/MP to WRX axleback and sounds just about like a factory WRX LOL! Don't believe everything you hear about pipe diameter making it louder. The motor is 2.5L with VF39 turbo so go figure. Honestly, it's in the muffler/silencers ability to muffle the sound.
1.) '02 WRX-2482cc-TD06H-20G-FMIC (just sold)
2.) '90 Legacy-2.5 turbo, VF39, Haltech E8 in-hand - waiting for the 5mt swap
2.) '90 Legacy-2.5 turbo, VF39, Haltech E8 in-hand - waiting for the 5mt swap
I'd go for the 3". I don't think there would be a huge sound difference with either set-up, seeing as how your not running a cat. The only real determining factor should be the muffler...
