2.5 inch dp and exhaust for lsj

Don't really know if this is the place to post this, but would anyone be interested in trading their 2.5 inch down pipe and exhaust for my 3 inch? Looking for zzp. I have a 3 inch zzp catted dp with extra o2 bung and a 3 inch magnaflow catback! Let me know

Why would you want to choke out your exhaust with a 2.5" downpipe? That magnaflow is probably loud as hell lol. But if that's your issue just get a different catback.

Put a vibrant ultra quiet resonator and borla exhaust on your car, it'll be quiet at idle/cruise but roar to life at WOT.


I'm catless with long tubes now and my friends say it's quieter than when I had my catted zzp 2.5 inch

I'm having pressure issues with a 3 inch. The 2.5 inch will most likely fix this, the 3 inch is too much for my supercharger

Must think that less boost means less HP.

Do 3" catback's show any gains over a 2.5 on an M62?

No. 2.5" is more than sufficient.

The downpipe should be 3" though for max flow.

Hell, 100%meth just made over 420whp with his TVS car using a 2.25" Borla catback (same as gmpp catback).

Fair enough, really a 2.5" pipe supports 232hp while a 2.75" pipe supports 283hp, so if anything you'd only lose a bit off the top end:
