Outer Limits 4x4 Board

I have an 04 Hilux and have been told a 3inch exhaust will improve the power and fuel consumption, what are your thoughts.

DO IT! i have a 2.8 intercooled turbo and the best thing i did was put a 3 inch dump pipe of the turbo and straight through with no mufflers or anything just out the back. if you can with stand a little noise not to much you will be very greatful. The quicker you get it out the better with the diesel's. my 2 cents. hope you make the right descision let me know.

yeah big difference too.... only in the dump pipe though i got a 2.5 inch from the flex back it it just sounded cool. get the 3 inch dump pipe if you wanna notice any difference in power ... and dont worry you will notice it . hope it helps

Thanks fellas, I'll get it done this week and post my thoughts.

Well I had the pipe done, the bloke who installed it for me use an adaptor plate ordered from melbourne that bolted onto the bum end of the turbo, he then made a new 3in pipe to suit the plate.
All I can say is, if you are considering doing this, GO FOR IT!.
The power is much better.

you wouldn't know where the plate came from, I'm about to do similar to my 3Lturbo soon.

Not sure, it is the same plate they use for the prado though, I'll find out where he ordered it from and let you know.
