As you power up your project the exhaust system needs are certainly a concern. You probably have manifolds or headers already picked out for fitment reasons like an LS swap, but south of the manifold or header exit is often left up a local exhaust shop and their limited product line. If your build needs the capacity of a 3-inch exhaust system, then you’re further compounding the issue trying to fit a pair of 3-inch “sewer pipes” under your car. Then, even if you do find the room for 3-inch dual exhaust (which often just ends in dumps at the rear axle) it is now usually the lowest part on your ride and will kiss every speed bump it meets. What to do?
The answer is in the same type of exhaust NASCAR has been using since the mid-’90s, oval exhaust tubing! The oval exhaust tubing cross section provides for increased flow while not requiring any more height than most standard exhaust systems. We offer 3-inch oval exhaust pipe for your performance exhaust needs with a cross section of 3-1/2 inches by 2-1/4 inches. That means you have the horsepower support of a 3-inch exhaust, but it only needs the typical 2-1/4-inch pipe clearance height wise, perfect for lowered vehicles or vehicles with minimal traditional exhaust routing space. You’ll find 60-inch straight sections, as well as 45- and 90-degree bends in both horizontal and vertical bend options to help you build your oval exhaust pipe system.
Our stainless steel 3-inch oval exhaust pipe tubing is built from 16-gauge material for strength, while allowing it to be as light as possible. The 409 stainless steel construction means a lifetime of use no matter the elements when compared to traditional exhaust tubing made from low carbon steel or even aluminized steel and can be easily welded by any shop and most enthusiasts with the proper welding wire.
We further support your oval exhaust pipe system build needs with full oval exhaust , with oval inlets/outlets, and round to oval exhaust pipe to connect your custom oval exhaust system to various header flange styles.
