Default Exhaust Tip Help
I am upgrading my exhaust to true duals with 3" run under the axle out back and I am really wanting to find some exhaust tips that are dual outlet. I really like the look of my Hooker tips but they are only 2.5" inlet, and I can't find any 3" inlet tips that are dual outlet. If anyone knows of some please help me out.

Thanks for your help.

Corsa tips do look good, but all the ones I've seen are 2.5" inlet. I was in the same situation as you, my car has also 3" true duals, I went with some SLP tips that were expanded to fit. Good luck on your search.

Would it be possible for me to just take my current set of 2.5" inlet Hooker tips and have them expanded to fit a 3" pipe?

You should be able to expand the inlet to 3 inches...if they are not chrome, then you should be fine...chrome has a tendency to crack. I have an extra set of C6 tips that I might be selling.

I have been looking at the stainless autozone dual tips and really like how they fill out the coves(?) for the exhaust tips on the bumper, but they are 2.25" inlet. Do you think an exhaust shop could expand those out to allow a 3" pipe?

Default Tips
We sell some dual outlet tips but they all have 2.5" inlets. Everything with a 3" inlet is a single tip (we have those too).

You can take a look at them in our catalog at:
