i had a 2 inch system with 2 1/2 over the diff then 3 inch for the last 2 foot or so and it sounded pretty decent. in brisvegas i got quoted 170 for a 2 1/2 system with 3 inch for the last couple of feet. with the one i had i could set off car alarms

for my g161 down here in SA i got a 2" system from the extractors back with a super turbo lukey muffler and a 3.5" chrome dumper for a touch over $200. it sounds pretty sweet.

i reckon "genie" extractors would be the way to go, but thats just what i think.

catch ya.

i just got mine done recently here in sa
$400 thats extractor and a 2ich system to a 4" dump pipe and lets say its smaller than others but stilll heaps loud very nice note but defectable.
my extractor have a badge on them saying advanced but i think they are just cheep ones but the guy said the guy who designes them used to work for genie but they do the job.

buy extractors that are 4-2-1 of either pacemaker or genie. make sure the secondary pipes are the longest you can get. my genies cost me 250, but it goes hard and has an awesome note, and its not deep enough to get me into trouble with the whallopers.

A brand name of extractors and other exhaust parts just like Pacemakers, Lukey, Hurricane etc. etc. They apparently went bust and ceased business not so long ago.
