What are your over all goals, what HP level do you feel you can achieve?

personally i would go with 3"dp to a 2.5 catback..

its what i have setup, and right now the whole 3" would be too much for me, but the 3" dp lets my big ass headers breath, haha...

Are you planning on getting headers?

Are you planning a stage 2 kit or something of the sort?

my clear image setup was inexpensive, and is the ****!

i got the pacesetter exhaust, cheaper than the rest, even with the 65 ive spent on the resonator + welding of joints to give it a deeper tone.

If you dont wanna spend alot of money, dont even think of the vibrant setup... its wayyyy to much anyway.

ZZP midlength is supposed to be pretty nice as well, now that they have fixed some issues.

i'm going to get the axle back w/ a slp loudmouth II tip (muffler) w.e. it is i'm getting it. axle back is 95 and only thing restrictive besides our dp's and headers is at the axle back which is 2.25 correct? hence the reason people keep stock exhaust and just buy a 3in zzp header/dp with a 2.50 exit
