RB headers/presilencer dimensions?

Anyone know what size the opening from the headers is? Thats the same as the exit for the presilencer right? Thanks in advance.

I looked there, it does not say the dimensions, like if I was to attach a pipe to the header what diameter? Someone has to know. Thanks.

Use 2.5" pipe and the 2.5" presilencer flanges they sell.

No problem. Are you trying to make a pipe to go from the header to the cat back? If so it's going to be VERY loud.

I am going to make a pipe too, but it will be out of a reasonator pipe so it will help to reduce the noise some, and I still have the stock cat-back so that will help to reduce the sound as well.

How are you planning on making that? I want to get the headers but don't have the $$$ to get the presilencer at the same time so I want to just use a straight pipe for now. How much does the presilencer help anyways? Thanks.

The presilencer really helps to keep the noise levels down. I've heard a car with headers and a straight pipe and it was MUCH louder.
