Has anyone found anyone that makes 3" over axle pipes that they sell alone? I can find 2.5 & 2.75 but nothing in 3". Borla makes a 3" but it's for 10-14.

Another (more expensive option of course) you can run the 3" borla as long as you use 11-14 axlebacks with them as the only difference is the connections on the two

I was wondering how much difference there was since both ranges are S197. i may look in to that option as well.
3” is a tough squeeze so likely good with 2.75” or go with the ‘11-14 and have them custom fitted.

I have the full JBA 3" mandrel bent system under my 2008.........It tucks very nicely, even around the 8.8 with no touching or rubbing anywhere.....

The difference in the 2007-2010 and the 2011-2014 is also the muffler mounting, the 2007-2010 has 2-point mounting for the mufflers and the 2011-2014 has 3 point mounting for the mufflers, so to get the 2011/2012 mufflers into a 2007-2010, the muffler mounts that attach to the rear frame rail would also need to be purchased. Of course the 2013/14 mufflers are different tips.

My next exhaust project is to replace the 3" JBA X-pipe with a 3" MAC Prochamber..........

This may also be an option for some 2007-2010 owners. Below is the Shelby/JBA 2.50" to 3.00" catback system.........

The Shelby/JBA catback shown above and below was available from Shelby a few years ago but is now obsolete, the OTA pipes with JBA labeled mufflers "may" still be available from JBA, but I am not sure?

Best bet is a direct call to JBA but I don’t see any competent exhaust shop having an issue making ‘11-14s work.

Hey! I read posts about your 325 30 20’s. I got ‘09 GT500(Eibach Sport Line springs, Adjustable upper/lower control arms/adjustable panhard bar). Outside of tires are rubbing on lip of fenders. It has Shelby CS3 20x11 wheels +50mm offset. Michelin Sport Cup 2’s. Did you do any modifications to vehicle or roll the back fenders?? Any advice would be great!! Otherwise, I may have to get Toyo Proxes R888R 315’s. Thanks

I don't want to hijack this 3" OTA thread, but no, I have not done any mods to the car body. I do have Eibach coil overs so I can adjust to the exact level without rubbing.

Ok. Thanks. Mine has struts so I guess I won’t be able to adjust height without coil overs?... not trying to hijack the thread. I’m new here. Lol. You have definitely inspired me to get the 325s though ha ha

You can get Eibach adjustable spring perches to fine tune the rear. I run Revan Racing rear ‘dead hookers’ and they use an adjustable spring perch for coilover like adjustability.
If you don’t currently have lowering springs, hit up Van at Revan.
