go and do some work mick :D

nah, i've already made my mind up bud just curious on thoughts...if 2.5L 4cylinder can sound that good, surely a 3.9 can sound better :twisted:

main reason why i wouldn't get it done is if i can't get the dump pipe enlarged, or if its gunna be too much $

3" would work well Sam, I will be doing the same on the 110 when I get back to OZ and fit the turbo (can you ask your mate to start looking for a T25...). I am not convinced that mandrel bent exhausts are worth the extra money, If I have some spare time I will run a simulation in fluent (used for modelling flow in exhausts and other things) and see what the actual difference is. 3.25" press bent may be just as good as 3" mandrel...

Can anyone give me any info on how much the pipe is squashed by the press for the simulation???

Would a T25 be sufficient for the Isuzu?

As Sam said above...

Also a 4L diesel that redlines at 3000rpm needs to move the same amount of air as a 2L engine that redlines at 6000.
