Just wanting to know if a 3" exhaust would be too loud?
I thought i'd like to drop the whole exhaust, and tig weld a full stainless
system exactly the same, either 2.5-3", but not sure if a 3" would be too much?
Anyone here running a full 3" by any chance?

3" will be too much I think, will be loud and tractor like.

You might have wanted to tell us (in this thread) that you are putting a turbo on it...

Go for 3" first part and go down to 2.5" over a long length of pipe.

Ah cheers thanks Mats!! Yep got a snail slithering, or sliming its way into my engine bay! Its living in my boot right now.

Hi Guys

Anybody know of a decent exhaust shop in the Central Gauteng area, as my exhaust is getting a little worse for wear. Hopefully a shop that has experience with GTV6's and can give me some useful info.

Regards.

Yes , I have been using powerflo in Lombary east ,2 km from greenstone. Speak to butch and discuss what you would like . He has just done z3 cars for me BUT you must let him know EXACTLY what you want in if not sure give me a shout .
Wildact in primrose are great but charge like a wounded buffalo . Their quality is great.
Another great place is in meyerton where we are having our dyno day on Saturday with the alfa club . Worth checking out first .

Hmm, I don't like the term "snail" for a turbo. It just sounds slow. To me a turbo looks more like a coiled Rattlesnake, ready to strike!

Escargot?

Cooked snail, even slower.

Thanks for the info, I would like to pic your brain as to what would be best for me. unfortunately will not be able to go to the dyno day, have previous arrangements.
I will pay Butch a visit and stop in at Barry to see if he's put an Alfa motor in that Nissan of his yet.

Mark , I don't have a brain but I can show you what combinations have worked on the last three cars , and we have been back to dyno to check . I have often wondered if our 6000ft above sea level altitude always makes us search for more torque which changes our design to the" normal"

Hi Kevin

Would it be possible to send me your detail, that we can make a convient time to meet.

My mail address is walshaw.m@gmail.com
