Need muffler dimensions for "G-Power" eBay 3" turboback

[kenamond]

I just bought a 3" turboback off of eBay for my 2g AWD. I'm wondering if someone else has on of these currently installed. I'm going to try to replace the muffler with a twin-tip Magnaflow unit, but I need to know the dimensions of the muffler that comes on it in order to pick the Magnaflow. If anyone has one and could do this, let me know and I'll elaborate on the dimensions I'd like to have. For more details, the auction is below:

eBay Motors: DSM 95-99 Talon Eclipse AWD 3" G-Power Exhaust Downpipe (item 310026163101 end time Mar-04-08 18:27:35 PST)

And here is a picture:

Thanks!

Mack, maybe you could just ask the seller.

BTW, what do you have on now (before the install)? OEM? 2.5? With your current mods, I would hope you've got something other than the ol' rusted pipes on there. At least now you've got an excuse to update the mod list.

I could ask the seller, but I'd rather have someone with one in hand and a tape measure to give me info. I don't trust them to take the time or have a vehicle on hand with the unit installed. And last time I emailed an eBay vendor, it was obvious they didn't speak english and wanted me to call some number.

I have stock exhaust . I knew this was my next power-adder for two years, but I've been in Scrooge-mode with money for more than a year, so I haven't spent anything on my car unless it was general maintenance or really cheap. My wife's new business is breaking into the black and she recently gave me her credit card . I'm pretty excited to see what the exhaust will do. I still see signs of knock in 3rd gear pulls that I can *not* explain, and I'm wondering if it's at all related to backpressure. But I digress.

I can't stand the single 4" chrome tip look nor that Honda ricer sound, so I want to see if a twin-tip Magnaflow will solve both issues. Just need some dimensions to see what my options are. And I'd like to get the info ASAP so that I can order things and have them ship before the rest of the family goes away for a week April 1. Then I'd have plenty of time to install the exhaust and get the car to an exhaust shop to have the Magnaflow installed (wish I had a welder and the knowledge to weld stainless).

Then I get either WBO2 or 255+AFPR. After both of those is DSMLink+EPROM. Then injectors. Then water/meth or FMIC. Then 20psi. But I've got a very slow oil leak on the front of the motor somewhere and probably need to do water pump, BS belt, harmonic balancer, tensioner, tensioner+idler pulley, yadda yadda (not going to do BS elim - just keep up on maintenance and pray). Then there's suspension, upgraded internals or build a 6-bolt, fix the damage to the exterior, etc. Too bad all this fun modding stuff costs money.

You think you've got issues. Thank the heavens you're not stuck with the Thermal 5 inch tip.

I have always known that these DSMs are money pits, but I am just now gaining real life experience with this phenomenon.

I've been eying that turboback. $300 shipped is awesome for the 2g AWD guys. Been looking to put it on my beater. Been waiting for someone here to post about it.

I also plan to chop off the muffler and put something with a dual tip to look more stock. Can you tell me how you like it so far? just first observations of it, quality, etc.

We've been talking about this exhaust for a couple days now. I installed it on a friend's car last week. It looks and sounds great! Fits like a glove!

Would you be able to take some measurements of your friend's system?
