I need a 3.5" or larger cat back.....where?

Ok, all the websites and catalogs fail to state what pipe size they are. Im doing a single turbo setup so I dont need a y-pipe. I need to find a cat back this big. Does any place sell just the intermediate over the axle pipe? Because I have several mufflers and tailpipes.
What exhaust systems are out there that are 3.5" or larger? I know mufflex and thats about the only one that advertises the pipe size.

Thanks.

I would do a custom with one exhaust pipe dumped at the axle like the mufflex, but with custom you can go whatever size and get dumped where you want it.

I want it over the axle. I could make a custom one but then I have to buy 3.5-4" elbows, pipe, which would cost basically as much as one already done. And I'd rather spend the time doing other things.

I emailed mufflex to see if they will sell me just the intermediate pipe. Depending on the price... maybe i'll have to make my own?

Mufflex

What about a Mufflex 4" with a straight through Magnaflow?

That's what I have on my 454 n sounds sweet. The fit was good also.

Stainless Works sells a 3.5" exhaust. I have one, and the i-pipe is 3.5" too.

If budget is a concern heres what we have done. we bought a cummins tailpipe 4" and used the over axle part of it and then just some extra 4" pipe to make the rest... The cummins tailpipe eliminates the need to weld a million peices t get the curve over the axle. many places sell that 4" pipe for around $50+ a couple extra peices and a muffler and you have a complte catback 4" for around $150 ?
