3" Exhaust

[DrtyE30]

I'm looking into doing 3" exhaust all the way back on my turbo build. Any suggestions on a mark up for it. Also muffler options?

Well I'm going to be doing the same on my turbo build. I have been looking at this place. They have pipe kits you can buy. I was looking at this one.

Is that exhaust grade? It looks like inter cooler piping. It says 16 gauge which is really thin. Maybe I'm wrong, but something about it doesn't look right.

They have different sizes they sell. Look through their site. Most exhaust that size is either 14-16 gauge material.

16ga is 0.065". Doesnt seem bad. Im liking their silicon elbows/reducer elbows and vbands as well.

Most exhaust is 16 gauge or thinner. 16 gauge is not particularly thin for exhaust. The weight adds up quickly especially on a 3.0" system.

They do have some nice stuff for cheap, just wasn't sure if it was going to work. It's cheap enough that I wouldn't mine buying it to check it out.

And the 3" expanded kit is 130.49 over 131.45 on the other website.... the savings are making me weak in the knees!

hahaha, I won't do the expanded. Mine will all be welded with v-clamps.
