You might want to look into a 3" coupler because of clearence with the MM.


We have tons of different sizes in stock.

Just currious as to what kind of exhaust your going to be running on this.. and if your looking towards 3" might i suggest something: (although this is for an evo, just take a little read on it, and it will help you out!) Its called duel pipes in an X configuration: LINK HERE

unless you plan to somehow use the stock fan that is a stupid idea. you wont be able to drive the car for very long with out overheating

well if you did plan to run it with out a fan at all that would be pretty stupid considering you want a running motor. you just dont know now a days. i dont know who i am talking to and i would rather be up front if it means helping you rather than not. i really dont know what half of the people here know. there are a few i am familiar with that do know their stuff and it would be a shame for someone not to speak up if that was your real plan. i would rather be the one to trigger a light in your head saying maybe's he is right than for no one to speak up and watch something happen. i guess its the father in me to point this kind of stuff out.
