GSL-SE New exhaust!
wel, finally got a new exhaust on my GSL-SE. the setup is a Racing beat header, then a 2 1/2 in. straight pipe back to a magnaflow muffer. The car is LOUD, but thats how i like my rotarys. THe tone is very deep until you get to the high rpms, then it just screams! I have already had some pretty big flames come out from behind it. The muffler seems to be pretty strong, but i will see how it hold up.
just a pic i thought was cool
The header and muffler
The old system
The new exhaust. If i get enough requests, then i might make a video. let me know what you think!

rookie117, what did you do with the aux ports? I thought the RB headers for SE's came with the lil Vac connection for the actuators? Does that one have it?
I've never really seen one, therefor, I ask.

Looks real sweet.
Just had our '80 at KDR for a dyno and Dave installed a 2.5" straight pipe from the header to the rear bumper. INSANE loud.
We're going to try a SuperTrap to meet the db level requirement of some of the tracks.

No bigger is not always better. Bigger is only better when you've maxed out what you've got. When you get too big you lose exhaust gas velocity which will hurt your power. You'll make less if you go larger than you need to. Stick to a 2.5" and call it a day. If you've got a peripheral port engine that needs to be tuned up high, then you'd need a 3". Until then just forget about going larger than a 2.5". It won't help at all.
