I'll tell you why, it seems some exhaust shops are lazy bastards.
When I got some welding done, I took it to a shop and the guy said ahh, 3" cat-backs are extremely difficult to install and not worth it. He even had an awesome purple 92Z that he sold w/3" piping and he said it wasn't worth it.
Now, I go to say it is definately worth it.
Then when I went to get mine installed his brother was there and said I don't feel like doing this today.. I was like well I have to go thru emissions and go to college in 2 days. It was done in under an hour. And a perfect job I might add.

as of right now i cant see me getting any more performance from bigger exhaust i dont think i need it yet...by the end of summer i may replace it with TES with the 3'' y pipe and run a 3'' hooker muffler or something

Here's a picture of the SLP 3" mandrel bent Y-Pipe, after some minor work it fits great.
