Whats limiting you on size for your dump pipe? Room?

The bigger you can go the better.

Free power in that alone.

Fair enough. 4inch is still good.

5 inch would have been ideal..

Should still do the job

IF your still worried about spooling, My brother's FD runs a completely stock "unopened" motor and has no problems spooling..

you should! they are working great, a pita to weld on though since the flanges are made from some crap aluminum... they are the cheaper pegasus ones, you can find them on ebay...

finished the piping today...




here's my helper in the garage... to be honest he's doing most of the work
