Default Cutouts (what size)

Hello, I bought Kooks 1 3/4, Kooks hi flo cats, and GHL exhaust back in '03. Without having to get underneath the car and measure, can anyone tell me what size I need. Thanks

Default Depends on where you want to pu them

What size is the collector on those? If you wanna put them on the header itself and the collector is 3", then you will need 3" cutouts. If you wanna add them on the catback, then 2.5".
