I just had to reopen this thread, as I am now at the back end of my new exhaust system. I'll be headed to Autozone for the tool to remove those BLEEPIN' hangers. By going from the down pipes right into a Y then 3 inch all the way back, I will be saving almost 60 lbs, as good as adding a few more HP. If my theory is right about how this will work, this may turn out to be a good thing I'm doing.
