I have no idea whatsoever about welding S.S. Tyler ... then again I will not weld it myself but go with the pices to a silencer repair/fabrication shop... Price-wise however i'm leaning more towards standard exhaust pipe material and possibly spend the extra $$$ on getting a wider system rather than a stainless again unless a stainless system has any real advantages apart from looks and durability!

Ok so on a mildly tuned motor i won't really see benefits of 3" over 2.5"... So unless someone has a good argument in fav of 3" for my application, its 2.5" all the way  :wink:  thanks peeps
