X-pipes?
Does anyone make an x-pipe that is a direct replacement for the factory resonator? I would love to find something like that.
Also, the universal x's that I have found are 2.5" or 3". If I am not mistaken, my LT-4 has 2.75" exhasaust tubing????
Thanks!

Re: X-pipes? (LT-4 CE)
You are correct regarding the stock LT4 pipe as being 2.75".
Not sure anyone makes an x-pipe as a direct replacement, but I recall there have been some postings about x-pipes being custom fabricated.

Re: X-pipes? (LT4BUD)
The guy who has done my exhaust for years would certainly be able to make one, but he is using a die and is not able to make mandrel bends. That's what I like about the Magnaflow and Dr. Gas x-pipes.
I may give Dr. Gas a call!!

You might try http://www.stainlessworks.net
They are in NE Ohio, they don't show 2-3/4 on web page but they might build one and they even do install.
I talked to them once, but no actual experience. They were pricey.
