Inlet size?

I have a 1993 Z28 Camaro. My exhaust is currently stock...I want to get a Flowmaster 80 and delete my cat....What is my current inlet on my muffler? 2.5" or 3"? Has anyone done this yet? does it sound good? Loud?

Thanks

Yeah, the stock i-pipe is a tricky size, 2.75 inches.

I think that a Flowmaster sounds pretty crappy on LT1's. Too raspy and blown out sounding. Flowmasters also do not flow all that well. They belong on Mustangs.

Do a search. There is plenty of opinions out there about Flowmaster mufflers.

What kind of muffler should I get? Flowmaster is the only muffler that makes a Crossflow (that I know of) and I dont really want to spend a bunch of money cause I am trying to sell it...So a cat back is kinda out of the question...

Any suggestions would be appreciated....

Thank You!

If you are going to sell the car, I would just leave it alone then and save the money.

A lot of people have been telling me that lately...I just wanted to do something to the exhaust before I sold it just to get a little more fun out of the car...

IMO...

A little more fun... install a nitrous kit, have some fun, and take it off before you sell the car so then you can install it on your upcoming car.

Another route, install an exhaust cutout, they only cost about thirty bucks and they sound awesome on a stock manifold/y-pipe car.
