Muffler Question

I second that! Just curious, but why are you going 2.5" on a 318? Is it heavily modified? You might be happier with 2.25" for a bit more torque.
I was not aware that there was big difference in performance between the 2.25 and 2.5 pipes. My local muffler shop wants about $650 for the exhaust from the header back. I was hoping to use the Jegs exhaust & Dynamax mufflers for less than $400. Is there a certain length muffler that I will need to use?
