mine does just fine with 1 3/4" exhaust and crinkle bent exhaust through a 3 foot muffler

i wouldnt mind upgrading to a dual 3" myself but i cant fit another 3' muffler on the side of the current one

also Daryn C had a 6.2 with milled, mild p&p heads, 230/2?? cam with 1 3/4" headers and 3" single pipe exhaust (rcsb, 3600, 3:73s) an went 12.4 @ 110 or so if i remember right.

IDK man not saying its hurting u BUT the way I see it 6.2s factory run a 3 1/2'' pipe why down grade? But just think what can happen if u go dual or lets say bigger single? im no high performance tech but i do read tons of magazines and the L92s and LS3s love to dump air with the bigger headers and exhaust pipes before my turbo setup i ended doing a 4'' single and did pretty good on the dyno i loved my top end when i was N/A
