|  Stock exhaust tubing diameter Can anyone confirm for me that it's 2.25" and not 2.5" I've been having a hell of a time trying to find out and it's keeping me from ordering my electronic exhaust cutouts. Thanks! |

| Now I'm confused....because I called supersprint, and they didnt know the stock tube sizing, but told me that their xpipe for my car was 2.5" "oversize" tubing, so he thought the stock would be 2.25". |

 | From the manifold back, I'd bet on Mo's numbers being reliable since he has actually fitted the parts he is talking about.
