Is this Exhaust Depot catback going to be 2.5" or 3" pipe?

I made a 3" already but im going to stop making it and ill be taking it off my website. If you an show me a 350whp dyno sheet then contact me and I will make you a 3" system. Also there is less clearance when you install a 3" and you have some rubbing issues at times.

Ok i have been busy so im yet to place the item on my site but I will tonight!

Like i said, the first 5 peeps will get $100 of the system, so when you go to check out i will adjust the price on my end.

Here is a picture of Diego and as you can see he already started making the 5 systems. This is the midpipe portion that bolts up to the cat:

Ok here is the link for the system. The first 5 will get the deal, i set it up for $500. However if you order before i change the price then it might be more than 5.

Any special request, feel free to hit me up.

I have the prototype tips that were used as an example. They aren't the same tips that come with the catbacks. (I think). Actually, its the same exhaust system as in the pictures from post # 1.
Too bad it keeps raining down here making it impossible to install it. Hopefully it'll be a beautiful weekend so I could post some videos!

is the R55 version also $500? The Exhaust Depot setup says both R56/R55. This would be a great deal for the R55.
