Finnally...

Well finnally the time has come, tommoro im going to go to get my exahaust, but before i do, i really need to ask some questions. First question, whats usually a good price? I dont want to over-pay so whats a good ball park figure or range that i should probably go by? Second, ( i know i've asked this before but im going to ask again) What is the best set-up for the 3.0? Im going with the flowmaster original 40 series so its a SI/DO.. SO would you go 2.5 into 2.25 duals or what would you change? And also how much would a set of 3 inch stainless steel tips run for ?
And finnally, do you get the flowmaster stickers lol? I'm REALLY excited, so if there is any other information that you might know or a question i should ask the guys whos putting the exhaust on please, give me all the information you know. Thanks!

I paid $279 for a Flowmaster 40 SI DO installed with 2.5" piping with 3.25 tips. Make sure they go with good quality tips. The interior of mine appear to be starting to rust.....since the day after they were installed.

It sounds awesome though. Very beefy. "Big truck sound, little truck package"

Nice pic, 4" exhaust on my 94 isn't going to look as awkward as I've imagined :)

I don't even have pictures yet. Tomorrow however, that will change. I may be able to get you a sound clip if I can find something to record with. I have something around here somewhere. A few other people have sound clips of their flowmaster on here. Try searching in the "3.0 V6" forum.
