Dom,

I'm dubious of any practical advantage to addressing that one choke point.

There is that constriction, then another 3 to 2-1/2 into the 2-1/2" "X" pipe, before entering the resonator. Once inside the rez, the twin resonator pipes aren't even 2" across before they spill out into an internal, single pipe less than 3" across before splitting again into the pair of less than 2" pipes leading out of the resonator and ending at the output collector. The outputs are approx 2-1/2" expanding to the 3" segment leading to the muffs and then transitioning again to 2-1/2" inlet to be split into two tubes leading to the muffler tips.

However, it would be no trick at all to cut off the flanges and install a slip-fit link to slide over the header collector (which I did, before further eliminating all of the MF stuff, except the muffs (which I like).

P.
