im going to do this because it sounds much like my old mercury cougar 351w!! :) do you think the sound comes from the down pipe or from the race cat or what??? thanks!!

@ColtonKuhn1 I believe the sound comes from the derestriction. It's the combination of lack of mufflers and big ol 3 inch pipe that makes the sound growl and resonate.

Do you lose much back pressure with a 3"?

[STL30]

@benlyons83 Great question!  Yes, there is a noticeable amount of backpressure loss. Specifically mid-range between 2000-4500 rpm going WOT. I want to say the increased flow up top makes up for it though...
