Hi guys
I am just wondering if someone knows if the 3.0 rear muffler and the 2.8 rear muffler have the same dimensions.
I need to purchase one for a 3.0csi and I so far have only seen ones listed for a 2.8
And even though I am considering buying it , I’m slightly worried about creating some unwanted reduction in gas flow if the bore is smaller.
So does anyone know if they are actually the same ?
Thanks
Barry.
 
Off memory there is a 55mm and 60mm version which should be in line with engine size. It's been discussed here before.
 
Hi Thomas
Thanks for the info.
I have found a silencer/ muffler with this part number 1107892 for sale somewhat locally to me and I don’t know if it is correct.
I did consider putting something non OE under her , but I’m just not sure about that.
On the 55mm versus 60mm question
do you know if those dimensions are outside diameter of the pipe or is it the inside dimension of the pipe ?
Thanks
Barry
 
It's a tough spot to be in, you find yourself asking "do I know what exhaust is on my 50 year old car?" It's probably not original so is the replacement matched to original...
