pretty sure i used a 2.25. if you have stock pipes it needs to be cut and welded in cause clamping wont work on the stock pipes, they really are not round, more egg shaped. so a 2.50 or 2.25 would work in that case.

i had after market pipes already with slip joints. why its clamped.

That's what I was worried about..... I guess when I do it and I cant get the back clamp to hold good I guess ill just weld it in then if I have too..

[Scottydoggs]

save your self the grief. if you dont have a welder, just head to a shop. hand them your glass pack ask how much to replace the res with it. may as well just get it done right the first time.

Oh I got one no big deal lmao its just so damn cold in Michigan right now and I wanted to get it done as quick as possible. I had to swap that upstream o2 in the cold and it was a huge pain! Anything under the car workin on in the cold sucks!

[Scottydoggs]

tel me about it, i took a week off from a tranny swap due to the cold.

That's why I'm waitin now till spring for the m90 install. ****s too hard to work on for that long outside especially If I start havin problems. I str8ened out my headlight racket to the frame and was gonna move onto the fender so I can get these skirts in door panels on but my hands were all froze up so I called it quits for the day. Besides, everytime I try n finish this **** I got something else messin up. I musta hit somethin in the road cause my resonator is leaking so bad it looks like I got a str8 tripple exhaust except craps comming out the back n on both sides of the damn car!

Looks kinda cool but man does my car sound like crap! Need to fix this asap

[willie14]

So a lil update. Got under the car to start measuring and I looks like a section post Res was replaced all the way to the first bend in the stock catback which is almost 24 in. Long story short that pipe is 2 1/2 in and completely round so it looks like imma be able to get away with clamping it in but will most likely have to buy 2 1/2 res and not 2 1/4. I'll post pictures when I get a final plan with what I'm going to do.

Str8 triple exhaust. That sounds exotic.
