Re: exhaust size ??

I have 3" running thru Borla XR-1 race mufflers on a 300HP 350, with no problems at all. They're a little loud with exits in front of the rear wheels, but as far as horsepower losses from them being too big are zero. I had 2.5" before thru some cheap-o turbo mufflers and I couldn't squeak 3rd gear, now I can. I have the back pressure in the headers though. My header primary is only 1.5" compared to some that are 1.75". Hope this helps. Jeff.
