Just one quick Question

Do the hooker 2460's have 3 inch collectors? if they dont, does any good brand make a pair with 3 inch collectors at a comparable price?
I was gonna go longtube but im gonna save some money, get some shorties and get a y fabbed up, and buy a Hooker Exhaust system

Using produced this thread in the first page of results while inquiring under "collector" in the Exhaust forums, at any date: https://www.thirdgen.org/techbb2/sho...ight=collector

Was that difficult? No. The best part about that was, you could have spent less time to find that thread than that spent typing. And please, do not argue that you read slow and type at 100 WPM.

I hope the above helps.

Mike

Don't even need to search. The sticky on headers https://www.thirdgen.org/techbb2/sho...hreadid=204967 has it right at the top.

Thanx for the help, as.shole. (mgray10)
I tried that, looked, didn't see the collector size.
You jerks (the MAKE A SEARCH ppl.. who just say that to everyone who asks a question that may have been covered once in the past two years) should think that maybe once in awhile we do a search and.. omg, didn't find it or didn't understand the info? Maybe it would be just easier to post a question? maybe it would be easier to give me the info i asked for.. woulda been a lot quicker than bitching at me.

to five7kid.. thanx, but it says outter diameter was 3 inches but the inner was something like 2.8. I dont know if exhaust pipes are measured in inner or outter diameter. I figured it was outter, but i didn't want to get the headers and have a y-pipe fabbed up in the wrong size of pipe. So i figured i would just quickly ask for a quick answer. I also dont have much time to be at home for the next couple of weeks but i need to have it done this week, so i cant spend much time searching.
thanx, i take it that exhaust is measured on outter width?

Things are reciprocating. If something is easier for you, it comes at a price for others. Your being a person not able to do the search route comes at the cost of the owner in the form of bandwidth and server space.

It is easier to rob a bank for fifty-thousand dollars than work a year for it, so am I robbing the bank? That's a negative...

"maybe it would be easier to give me the info i asked for.." Must you think that us, "jerks (the MAKE A SEARCH ppl.." are revolving around your very satisfaction?

yah, pretty much.. i asked a question, i would expect replies to have something to do about the question, not bitching. the replies should revolve around me, idealy. giving a reply to me that doesn't help me is just cause for further questions.

That I know of the answer is no. I would not worry about .4 inches of total flow diameter loss as the effects will likely not be noticed in you application. There are also different gauges of materials. Who ever is making the y-pipe should examine the appropriate articles to be connected with measuring devices, thus eliminating your problem of "[having] a y-pipe fabbed up in the wrong size of pipe."

Is this helping, sir?
