Why would one upgrade from dual 2.25" to single 3" - wouldn't that be capable of less volume?

I think the stock downpipe is 2.5" just by measuring the circumference. Anyone Confirm??

Default Mind you that before the split, theres actually 3 layers of metal, inner circ. is much smaller.

I can take photos of my chopped downpipe at the split I took off of my S6 and take measurements if you really want to know.

Default You'd be surprised ;-)

110lbs vs. 35lbs is a big weight savings, turbo spools several hundred RPM sooner with little to no back pressure and the sound is indescribable. I think a video is in order of my car soon...

Default Because a Stromung sounds great and turbo response is faster.
