Default FM turbo guys: anyone still 3" exhaust?

I know alot of you have went with 4" dmax stuff, and I have spoke with black04 and few others about it..but is anyone still have 3" single? I have alot of 3" stuff and would like to stay with it if it wont kill my power. I thought maybe a cutout off the dp, then straight shot into a "straight thru" muffler dumped??

Not making huge power, but i'm rocking a 3inch to the rear tire out thru a cutout. 600HP+ and I got no plans to change it anytime soon.

KBracing FTW !!! dang, everybody gonna be rocking Kyle's kit. My kit is coming with a 3.5" DP so I am keeping that size for the exhaust. Sounds like overkill, but oh well.

Not trying to thread jack here, but how big a turbo can be used with a 3" downpipe?

Running a full 3" all the way to a factory mount Corsa Sport. Quiet in town. LOUD at WOT. I fully intend to continue using this all the way up to an eventual larger displacement / T76

HELL YEAH!!! Kyle is the man indeed... I was not even considering turbo but with his kits so cut and dry with some support stuff its almost too hard to resist

Well 3" it is, ill just install a cutout like Foose did.. Will my tune be thrown off if my cutout is open vs closed????
