[QUOTE="HoldenTX, post: 1305966, member: 9496"] Actually it would be much better for the AFE, Corsa, Borla etc. People to explain what engineering they did and the conclusions they came to when designing their products. Presumably Ford spends millions on engineering and has access to the latest and greatest flow modeling software and came to the conclusion that 2.75" was the best bang for buck. Saying a wider pipe will increase flow is like saying a firehose connected to the side of your house will let you water the garden faster than a regular garden hose. That could be true if the water pressure at your house would fill a firehose. Anyhow, beyond the sound improvements I really haven't seen any of the aftermarket exhaust makers claim any scientific improvements. But I'd love to hear more from them on what they did to improve flow and how it was measured etc. I've got a feeling everyone went with 3" because everyone else did....or maybe that was needed for the best sound.
