I had 3" dp and decat, diesel straight theu centre and I found it a bit raspy.... But also not really that loud either, so getting a better back box might be the answer

Ok so how do you join the 3" decat to the 2.25 standard exhaust? Reducer?

That would be an absolute mission, 2.25" pipe won't flare to 3" so you won't be able to just sleeve it :undecided:

you may as well save for a full miltek system tbh if you dont want the 3"

A 2.5" decat would be the best solution imo.

Thanks, I've found a few on eBay. Then all I'd need is a small 2.5-2.25 reducer right?
