The RCM system is lovely, well made, lovely sound....but expensive.
If you are on a budget, Hayward and Scott.

That's what I was wondering. How do you get around joining a 3" downpipe and mid section to a 2.5" Prodrive backbox.

Would not a 2.5" downpipe etc. be better If the rest of the mechanicals are kept standard?

Indeed...Hayward and Scott will produce what you want.

I had a H&S downpipe, centre section with Blitz backbox...blitz is 2.5 "or" 2.75..cant remember..........was loud though :lol:

TBH no need to change centre section...and not much more out put between 2.5 and 3"...maybe a few ft/lb but hardly worth the extra cost!
