Hey Guys !

I got a 97 XH XR6 and am planning on putting a 3" exhaust on it for something different ! im just wondering if anyone has done ity before and if it will be too noisy or drone alot ?

Where i work as an apprentice mechanic we have a proffesional exhaust bloke and im getting him to put on pacemaker extractors, 100cell Hi-Flow cat and a 3" exhaust!

Ive got quotes on a cam and new valve springs plus a dyno tune because my best mates dad owns a performance shop !

Whats everyones thoughts on all this ? Cheers Jesse

I wouldn't bother with a 3inch, unless your planning on turbocharging it down the track. It will drone like a mofo. Especially if it's auto!

3" is a waste of time on a Stock Motor.

They are loud and are only useful if your engine has been highly modded. I wouldn't have a 3" for a daily.
