Default exhaust tip question

http://store.summitracing.com/partde...p;autoview=sku

I want to put that exhaust tip onto my exhaust but my outlet size on my exhaust is 3.00" and the exhaust tip inlet size is 2.5"...wil I still be able to have that fit over the exhaust even though it's .5" too small?

Thanks

I'm no expert, but NO

I would think you need a 3" tip

I doubt you would be able to just put that in over your exhaust, but you can buy a 3" --> 2.5" reducer at almost any auto parts store.

Advance carries a pretty good selection of those. I bought one for my truck. It was rated for 2 1/2" to 3 1/2" tail pipes. I took it off when I bought my MagnaFlows.

btw, I am going to be putting the same magnaflow tips on my truck when I have my exhaust re-done, but I am getting the 4" tips. I'm pretty sure the 4" tips have a 3" inlet and they look bad as hell.

hmm that is odd, magnaflow makes a slash cut 4" w/ 3"ID but only with a 15deg slant, the 45 degree slant (which I like much better) does only come with a 2.5"ID.. why the hell would they do that for a truck/suv tip?

magnaflow doesn't have them listed on their website so I doubt they do, but I am sure you can find what you are looking for, tons of companies make stainless 45 degree cut tips so I am sure you will find one. If not you can still use the 3" --> 2.5" reducer for a few bucks from advanced, and just use clamps if you don't have a welder.
