    I'm pretty sure mine was factory and it was like 1 3/4" OD tops. The muffler outlet was smaller, 1 1/2" outside.
    Yeah mine is bone stock. It was a Tennessee car till I moved here. It even has the resonator below the shifter.

    I think it would be cool to run in the 12's with stock size exhaust and a/c.



    But I'm about to have a different project. (not a festy)(and has a t-bird t-coupe drivetrain)

    I've seen a few cars make 500 hp thru a single 2.5 inch pipe. I think i could benefit from some larger (maybe 2 inch) , but wouldn't want much bigger than that. I think I can 300 hp using the stock festy exhaust*...lol

    In my case it better to run smaller for the "velocity"

    Pipe size on the rear turbo could be critical. One must keep velocity up to keep turbo speed up. You might lose some velocity going to a larger diameter ex pipe.

    Great time slip Greg!

    I agree and how much could a full exhaust be on a festy its barely 10ft long with like 2 bends!
