Exhaust size

[Nova_turbo]

II'm currently running phase 3.5 in my Corsa A cabrio. I use a home made 2.1" system but want to get a custom exhaust made.
Bearing in mind I will be upgrading to Phase 4 shortly what diameter should I go for?
Is a 3" ok? Anything larger and I think I will struggle to get it to fit.

Cheers
Rob

Hi Rob!

I think a 3´´ is more than ok!
In Germany the People said that we are crazy to drive the LET in a normal Nova, but what are you please?
Phase 3,5 in a Nova Cabrio ?!?
Respekt!
Could you send me any Photo´s please?

3" is more than enough. I have a complete custom made 3" exhaust system with edelbrock silencers under my nova. A little bit to loud, but very nice sound!

Thanks Stephan/marco

I havent got any new pic's but if you look at http://www.novaspider.co.uk you can see what it looked like last year with the XE. The car is VERY different now!

Stephan, did you route your system around the gear selector and over the rear axle like a normal Corsa A???
If you did was there enough room?

Thanks
Rob

Have you been at Billing, too?
I think I´ve seen your nova there.

The exhaust ist routed like the original, but we build it directly under the car. The heatshields under the car are removed to get more space. Take care at the rearaxle! Think of the position of it, when the car is standing on the wheels again!

MfG, Stephan

I think 2.5" is optimal for 2l engine.
