are 3 1/2 tips to big

[howiefisher]

i have 95 mustang gt 5.0L,5spd has 2 1/2 inch right now but want to go bigger .But are the 3 1/2 to big ?????? also what are the best high flow cats i should get for the best sound and flow

IMHO 3.5" is harder to pull-off to make it not look goofy but it can look good. I personally think 3" is the best size though. I'm very happy with my BBK high-flow cats, I passed emissions with them 2 years in a row, and most people have trouble believing my car has cats since its so loud. Been installed since oct. 2005 and no problems at all so far

I have 3.5" tips on my magnapack system. It looks good you can pull it off but you need to have wide tires in the back so it all evens out.

Stick with 3 inch if you can in my opinion. I have seen 3.5" on a bumper with no cut-outs (94-98). They look fine if you have bumper cut-outs, like 99+.

imo, 3 1/2 is too big. mine are 3" thru the mufflers, then go down to 2 1/2"

Well, I dont think 3.5 is too big at all. I have 3" now. Tallmf are they TRUE high flow? Or do they just say high flow? Thanks.

I think 3.5" is too big - I've got 3" and think they look sweet - any larger would look goofy (rice) on my car.

I had 3.5" tips on my Mustang with the Mangaflow cat-back. I think they look better than any other tips I have seen. Unfortunetly I took them off to make the panhard bar fit.

pretty much depends on what your looking for 3.5" will def get noticed. if thats good or bad depends on you

so anything out of the ordinary or the norm is just rice? I just love how people throw that word around with no regard or thought into it at all.

Whoa - hit the brakes!!! Re-read my statement - any larger would look goofy (rice) on my car. I'm not dogging anyone else, but saying that on my car I would not like them. No harm meant and definitely not putting anybody down.

i have 3 1/2" tip's on my car.

I think 3.5in looks just great. I have 3.5in macs and my buddy has 3.5in magnapacks on his 98 cobra and they look great too.

I have to say that this is one of the bes tlooking stangs I have seen. ..Plus I like the 3.5's on there.

 

[juiced_94gt]

Thanks man

 

[The Green GT]

I have turndowns, but if I had tail pipes I would def have 3.5 in. They would look sick with my 315's.

My 3.5s....I miss my bumper looking like that...now its all screwed up...Also Tri-Bars FTW

You gotta look for clearance too , all depends which brand you choose. I have a bassani catback and tips are 3" x 21 "long, after that it goes to 2,5". Took them off cause tire was too wide and now I miss them .Get some 3,5" chrome or polished tips , which I don't know but they will look good and give you that american muscle look

 

[juiced_94gt]

I got mine at pep boys 4 years ago for 20 bucks...they still shine like new

 

[1bad04GT]

Ive got 3" on mine but 3.5" looks good as well, if you go with that size, stay away from the "rolled" look imo
