For those of you with GT Spec exhausts
I was curious, what IS the actual diameter of the piping? Is it 2.5" and feeds into 3" or what? Anyone with measurements or pictures? I can't find any true information and online its just diameters for certain applications.
I need a little bit of help! Thanks!
Btw, is it driver side exit? Does it also have a little resonator before the muffler in the y-pipe?

What up dawwwg,
The end that bolts to the M/P is around 80mm, (bolts up to CS M/P) it bends around and might taper a little bit into the resonator. After the resonator I believe it goes back to 80mm before the muffler and tip. I don't know though, I've heard people say it changes diameter several times, but from my looking at it, it looks pretty uniform in diameter...
It is driver's side:

RB is buzzy in comparison, N1 is raspy in comparison, CS is just louder--whereas the GT spec is the deepest and most melodic in exhaust note... IMO, lol.

I'll most likely get one. Thanks for your help!

The RB would be the quietest, but it's also the most restrictive (2.375 cat-back).
Are you running stock ports? I ask about the ports because I noticed the change in 'loudness' since I've opened my ports up even more.
Whatever, I think you'd be impressed with the GT spec.

From the video I watched, the basic RE Amemiya Dolphin Tail (700 bucks+, not incuding shipping) sounds *awesome* with stock cats, and it's a full three-inch, single-exit exhaust...
Watch the videos here:

If only they weren't so...Amemiya-tastic (expensive)...

The extra presilencer/resonator I hope kills alot of the sound.
Thanks alot Erik, this is all appreciated.

That and I like the single look and want to keep the weight down (my car is under 2500 and I want it to stay that way).

I've heard the Borla XR-1 and it doesn't do exactly dull it as much as I want. Either way the Corksport will STILL be loud due to its lack of muffler packing. If I can incorporate a thicker packed muffler and a resonator already into the system it should be fine for what I want.
That and the cost doesn't bother me. I have no reputable welders in the area to get what I want and none of them will touch a car without emissions (as I have NONE).
So I'll get a different cat-back and a new sound (hopefully deeper). That and I usually need everything to be SS (even added parts) or I get weird. Stupid MN salt.
