solanistec Posted May 1, 2012 Report Share Posted May 1, 2012 (edited) I have a 06 v-max with headers and a cold air kit on it. Is a dual 3in set up too much for a basicly stock 6.0? I tryed looking at older post but couldn't find the answer i was looking for. Edited May 1, 2012 by solanistec (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blown 346 Posted May 1, 2012 Report Share Posted May 1, 2012 No, mine has 3" from the factory. Any larger exhaust even with a blower etc is way to big and will end up hurting you in the long run as far as backpressure is concerned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
solanistec Posted May 2, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 2, 2012 Actualy it is two 2 3/4 pipes to the muffler. I want to run a true dual setup from the cats to tail pipes in 3 in. How bad is it going to hurt performance? Right now there is a hacked up system with two blown out magnaflows and 2 1/2? pipe that seen better days. I'm thinking true 3 in system with good mufflers. I know I will lose some torque but I don't want to hurt anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have an 06 vmax and when I bought it new it had true duals to the muffler with bigger than 2 1/2 inch pipe. Shouldn't need anymore than that. Guys on here are running one 3 inch pipe back and they are forced induction. (Corsa). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
