I will create an Instagram for us. And size was going to be 1 7/8. Looked at stainless works and they are cheap, gain less and not better quality than ARH or Kooks

Okay thanks!

Curious why not 2" with the plans you have for the car and engine.

You sure aren't confusing them with stainless power (cheaper version of stainless works)? Stainless works are just as good as ARH or Kooks.

Buy the car that you would most like to get beat in. The other guy will always be faster.

I particularly don't care about the size difference. Either will do, I just 7/8 as the perfect fit for the vehicle and all around. I can do the 2". And I'm not sure, I knew one of the 2 were the knock off brand lol. I really would have to look into stainless works, remember I want a great sound and performance.

I say go with 2" because of your plans. If you don't you'll be replacing them down the road. If you were a SS staying n/a I'd say get 1-7/8". Yea stainless power, tsp, obx, dynatech, and a few others are cheaply made. The top brands based on quality, dyno #'s, and customer service are ARH, Kooks and SW. Pfadt was in that category.

Welp time for a transmission replacement. Tell the dealer that I will gladly take the old transmission reworked and swap out. Lol but seriously sorry to hear that, how did you find out.

LOL! well, you remember at the house I noticed seepage. It seems to dripping slightly now on the garage floor. Jacked it this morning, it's a lot worse than it was when installing the diverters. Not gonna stop me from going to the strip Thursday. But I guess I'll take it in next Monday morning

It's actually not quite as bad as it sounds. But I hate dealer work...Should just be a quick seal change... I hate to walk out in the garage and not see the car there.

Relieve some pressure? Sometimes that fixes it if I remember correctly. We all hate dealer work, but Serra does take care of us. Haha, try walking out to the garage to a camry...

I remember that seepage that looked like leftover glue. Wow didn't think that would become a problem. And yea We hate dealer work but long as it's quality dealer work you shall be fine

Eric I will go 2" but far as brand you didn't help lol. SW sounds ok, ARH and kooks sounds great. Pfadt shouldn't have went out of business, I would have had this done months ago.
