I know my headers are aftermarket because they don't look like the stock picture, though I don't know the diameter, cuz Needswings doesn't seem to list the measurements for the "NeedsWings r193/r170 Exhaust Manifolds" they have for sale. But I know I have 2x 2.5" stainless (Burns Stainless Products) coming out of the headers into a single pipe, just like yours. ( I replaced the scraped exhaust clamps, so I had to know the size.) I will put the car on a lift tonight and see if I can get a measure on the size of the last couple feet of pipe before the muffler. If I can get a 50 dollar cut and weld to install a couple feet of three inch pipe, and get a more aggressive sound, without drone, I'd be all smiles.
I was just going through your profile, and your youtube page, Jim. I noticed you have done an engine swap on your car? I can't really hope to have the exhaust noises of your 8 cyl 5.5L beast in my 3.2L car, not with the same exhaust system at least. The Borla made me sound like a freight train or something.
Welcome to the forum. I would recommend you reach out to DTMenace and give him your VIN -- chances are high that with your car having that many mods, he can see the previous forum member to own it. From there, we can do a post search and you can probably find VERY detailed threads about each mod.
Just food for thought...
