Default So, I pulled a stupid (exhaust related)

And cut off my exhaust, right where it starts to parallel the driveshaft. For a muffler I used a "3 inch" purple hornie... Looking inside, it looks to be about 2"-2.25" I.D. instead of 3", but I continued and put it on. It can't be anymore than 2.25" in there, and it's just a single inlet/outlet. Car is pretty much stock except gear, clutch, cat delete, and CAI.



How much is this hurting me HP wise, rough guess?

Think I could drop a couple tenths by cutting the Y pipe and running 2.5" true duals into bullets?

Dynomax bullets are my recommendation if you want to run a muffler of that style.
