does anybody have a 3" exhaust on an ef/el falcon. i have heard 3" on xh utes, and they sound very good, just thought that theyd be abit big for a n/a 6, and lose power instead of gaining? is this true or would it be ok to fit one?
cheers

OED666, Grechie and turbodrift all have N/A 6's with 3" Exhausts, all are running cammed and tuned 4L's, all 3 are running sub 14s 1/4 mile times

turbodrift's Brock EA has a sound that cannot be described. 4L + 6750rpm + 3" Exhaust is amazing. OED's sounds like a 2.5" single muffler on steriods. Cannot vouch for Grechies, as he lives in Melbourne, I have heard OED's and turbodrift's first hand.

Going 3 inch on mine did not make it louder to be honest, nor did it give me an annoying drone :)
