ive always heard around 450-500. ive seen cars make that with 2.5" duals. just wondering how far you can go before it really becomes a cork.

this is corvette related im trying to decide between the LG streets or a cheaper setup with 3"

keep in mind i will be running cutouts on my midpipe.

I'm making 615 to the wheels through 2.5" mufflers

I would think 500-600 rwhp would be fine with 2.5s...depends more on the mufflers and the design of the exhaust system.

cool thats all the info i needed.

jay, i fabricate custom exhausts on the side lol. i am super duper familiar with welding aluminized pipe

if you do a search under my threads, i probably made one of the better true dual F-body setups i've seen on this site.

ive got access to a miller MIG that runs off 212 with gas, and i can lay a sweet continuous as long as my gaps arent too big, if the gaps are big, its tack/cool/tack/cool till the cows come home

again, thanks guys/gals? for the info

btw my plans are just cam, minor head work, headers, and a 150 shot. you know, basic boltons. im not wanting to buy a full on race exhaust, since i plan to go turbo some day, if i ever land a big boy job.

how thick of tubing can you expand with your expanding tool? are you single?lol.

that look better than my cheap expander.I am just working with 3" exhaust tubing ,.070 thick.I am always looking for any reason to buy more tools,maybe because I am such a tool.lol.you could make good money welding up custom exhaust systems,you know what you are doing.you go girl.
