2" to 2.5"

[halfbreed]

wanna upgrade my exhaust piping from a two inch to 2.5 inches. i have a resonator on at the moment, no cat converter and that mofo is loud.
if i run the 2.5, will it be considerably louder??

its an RB20E

[MISHI]

Well it'll definately be a louder MoFo!

[blu-rolla]

turbo it. it'll get quieter

[honda4life]

how much louder?

Try combining a jack hammer with ah truck engine and puttin a scraming baby in a room.dats how loud

[killersuzuki]

What picasso said!

[Dave]

if that engine is not turbo 2.5 would be too big and u would loose power and also if it is auto, worse yet
would only work if u keep a silencer on the end to build some power

a silencer on the end to build some power

That does realy work ???

[Dave]

if u going with an overkill exhaust it would help
i has 2.5" on a 1.5 engine with the stock end barrel and still made good power

wah kindah car and did you loose or gained hp with the silencer

[X2]

silencer will always kill power. Depending on your setup, a little restriction (like the silencer) might help you with the some low end tq. The larger, less restrictive the exhaust, the better your top end power tho.

Whith a rb20... Based on the displacement alone... you should stop at 2.25" unless you're going boost.

the project never got off fully but the car ran a bit faster low down and gain lots on top, used to top at 160 and then with a weber, exhaust, extractor and minor electrical ran 190+, me and my namesake turbo boy had a man in a prelude wondering what was going on
