That's a good compromise solution . My cat back starts at 2.5" then into a Y - 2.5" in both directions to the mufflers .
I've often wondered if this would be much of a restriction over going full 3" .
I believe resistance to flow is proportional to the length of pipe so a short necked down piece like this is not going to be much more resistant than say a full 3" all the way .
Would you agree ?
