I agree some what. I have the vibrant 3 inch exhaust and the RAW 3 inch intake. It sounds a little ricey at WOT.

Gl with that if it works out for you let me know because I wanna get my exhaust done but Im not sure what I wanna do yet, obviously header, catted or catless dp, and either Corsa, Borla, or Ark exhaust, not sure.

Vibrant is loud... I would say a 2.5 inch exhaust would be most beneficial for you too.

Why do you say that because its just to loud or does the 2.5 just create more power, because me I' am looking for more power, I can careless for the sound, ask my neighbors ;P

Should have stated clearer. Performance wise, IMO 3" exhaust would be overkill. If you're just going to have stage 2 with a 2.9 the 2.5" would be better. I doubt the 3" would hurt performance that much (less torque down low, might make a little more power up top), but I would go with a 2.5" cat back.

I just recently switched form Dc Sports 2.5" to the Vibrant 3" and it does sound pretty good at idle. I cant tell how it sounds WOT because all I hear is the turbo while im WOT lol. All in all I do like it tho.
