Just called, closed for the day. Anyone else? Also, Which one do you think would be better for performance. Right know I have Magnaflow mufflers welded in and I removed both resonators in the mid section and staright piped where the oem resonators where. All piping is OEM diameter. Or would the carson tuned catback flow better?

Called carson today and they do not know the diameter of the exhaust. You would think they would know their products a lil better.

thats makes about as much sense as this....do u know the diameter of your finger or toe? it is on YOUR body.you think u would know your appendages better. man u know how many items they stock...can expect them to know EVERY size. did u ask them if they would look and/or measure the item for you so you would know the diameter of it?

Yep, I asked if they would measure one and get back but they did not have one in stock. I would imagine if I was selling an exhaust system I would put the dimensions of the item so people would know exactly what they are spending aprox $1,000 to buy. I have never seen an exhaust listed for sale from a legit company and not have at min the diameter of the pipe (considering the reason for putting an exhaust on a car is typically performance related and diameter plays a large role in that)

fyi- im not selling my fingers or toes, if I were to do so I would identify the specs so you would know if the measurments are ones you had in mind that you were interested in purchasing

If you are looking for performance, how about staring where the real exhaust restrictions are

Agree, I am doing the headers and exhaust at the same time. Atleast headers are not a difficult decision! A forum member told me the exhaust diameter is 2 1/2 inches. Would that diameter lose me a lil low end torque?

FYI, look for exhaust clips of the carson exhaust. I did not sound very good imo.
