I want to completely get rid of the factory 2.25 Y pipe. I don’t want to spend a whole bunch to get a 2.5 inch kit, but I have a ton of left over 3 inch exhaust piping. My question is, with a 1988 TBI 350, I know 3 inch duals is massive massive overkill, but if I use some 2 1/4 inch mufflers I also have laying around to choke it up, would that create more back pressure to keep from losing low end torque by using such large pipes as duals. My plan is to run it back and put an H pipe probably around the bell housing, then put the 2 1/4 inch mufflers out to 45 degree dumps in front of the rear wheels, I believe they are 2 chamber mufflers. Just want to know if it would be wayyy too much even choked down because I have it laying around and just don’t want to dish out over $100 bucks to weld up some 2.5 or 2.25 pipe when I have some slightly larger and meaner looking pipe laying in the yard. Any help is appreciated.
