I'm about to get an exhaust system built for my amazon, and would like some advice. I know bigger is better, but too big will rob bottom end.
The current engine is fairly standard, fed by a single 45DCOE, into a FI dual exhaust manifold, which I plan to keep. What do I need after the manifold? Do I need to extend the 2 primaries before they join? What size pipe after that? 2", 2.25, 2.5"? How many mufflers, and where to locate them?

I will be using the car for TSD type rallies, and I don't want it too noisy. To complicate the picture a little, I also plan to rebuild an engine for it over the next year, to the 'fast road' type specs, and ideally would like to keep the same exhaust.

Any suggestions please?

JohnH
