what exhaust options do we have?

what exhaust options do we have? is there a full 3" kit available for the FB? what vendors? I do not need header or downpipe, just like a full cat back system.

it looks pretty slim over the axle...

Nope. Nothing in 3". For bolt-on stuff, the biggest available is the Racing Beat long-primary system, which is 2 3/8" after the collector.

Is it a stockport motor? 3'' is way too big for n/a. You will lose tons of velocity in the exhaust and lose power.

I am still in the middle of my s5 turbo swap. Can anyone answer if 3" will fit over the axle? I do not plan to lower my car any and at stock height it looks tight
