That's about all I can think of too, get an SRT turbo back and have the tips re-welded on it. Other than custom fab the largest I've seen around for the R/T is 2.5". Haven't heard of anyone selling a 3" for the R/T, just the SRT.

Yah I don't believe there is any 3" setup for the R/T since how many R/Ts are there out there that need a 3" setup. Easiest way is to buy a 3" SRT setup and have a muffler shop reweld it to fit the cutouts... either that or have someone make a custom setup.

your best bet is to go to a muffler shop that will do custom work, and have them fab you up something nice out of stainless steel. That way you can have it look/sound the way You want it to.. not the way some company decided, ya know?

I tried that... most exhaust shops wants 1200 to 1300 cdn for the setup which I refuse to pay that much for it if I paid 600 w/ resonator and a muffler.

I already have a 3" TBE w/ single exhaust. Now Im bored of it and I dont like the look of the single exhaust anymore. Besides I paid next to fuck all for the exhaust I have right now...

Although I am somewhat considering buying MPX's exhaust.....

Wow, that's pricy. I remember getting a custom stainless exhaust priced out and it was about $700-$800 IIRC, but that was also 2 1/4".

Uhhg, shame on you guys. Truebendz has a 3 inch exhaust that will fit the RT cutouts in either SS or steel, resinator or none, your choice of tips. You need to take it to a welding shop so they can weld on the tips, however thats a cheap job. Definaly your best bet because all the srt-4 exhaust cannot be re-welded to fit correctly.

Trubendz catbacks are 2.25" and 2.5" only. They do have a 3" pipe kit, but it's just that, a pipe kit. It doesn't come with any sort of muffler, you still have to have your own muffler custom fitted. For what that's worth you may as well just go to your local SS exhaust shop and have a custom fit done.
