Key words here are effective diameter. You are right scott. I did
however get some custom 3" bent ont my 4kq that made a very noticeable
difference on performance. Sounded great too. It straightened a few of
the curves in it as well. Dont recommend it though. Seemd to hit the
undercarriage in places, and getting it to stop rattling over bumps was a
year long chore. Wouldnt do it again.
