Thought I had a 2.5" catback but since that muffler came from Japan I'm almost sure its 60mm (2.36") since they use the metric system. And I just ordered a 2.5" SSAC header so my exhaust will be similar to yours. I am now feeling better that it should work without any issues.

I have sr16 cams, sr16 ecu with greddy emanage blue - stock clutch, intake & header (for now) and I wont say a modded SR20de wont beat me but it must be well worked.

Peace

It still feels strong up top, but the camswitch is pretty quiet. I only used the 60mm catback because I already had it on the car. With sr16 cams it would definitely hinder power up top. Of course it will work without issues, but every horsepower counts in the n/a game.

On the low cam it felt faster than any de I have driven. On the high cam
it pulls pretty hard. I went from a t25 turbo setup at 12psi to a ve so I can tell that the ve still has some guts. I'm used to instant power at 3krpm so I am still waiting to hear the bov make its noise

Hahaha I was talking about the jdm de I have but I really want a ve now the only prob is my cash isn't ready. Hahaha can't wait til I get mine though.
