CME or Dumps Alrighty well heres the thing i have a 1994 camaro z28 that im in the process of building. im running a 427 lt1 with a f1 procharger and front mount intercooler at 12psi. i will be pushing quite a bit of horsepower. now i was planning on running kooks headers with a y pipe into the borla exhaust and then out the the cme tips. or just bypass that and run dumps. with the amount of horsepower i wanna push can i go from a 3" pipe to 2 1/2"(only at the very end)? which do you guys think looks better?
I am currently running a set of 3in. True Duals into a custom CME... The sound is incredible with not much restriction. Mine are ran under the axle... Never have a problem with rubbing/scraping.
Good luck...

well i have all the cme parts for the car. i have the valance, brand new slp tips that were never put onto the car, and even the original bends that were never used. im gunna be making about 700 horsepower do you guys think it will be ok going from a 3" exhaust all the way to the bends and then using a reducer into a 2 1/2" exhaust to the tips or do you think it will restrict the flow?
