The shitbox is going in on wednesday to have it's exhaust made but I can't decide whether to go for a 3.5" outward rolled pipe or a 4" outward rolled. 
I think 3" looks too small on a saph though!
Anyone got any pics of a saph with a 3.5"?

Before it was cleaned with autosol it looked "normal". Thats looking from the angle the photo was taken.
If you are running 15/16" wheels the 3.5" will be fine, if you are running 17/18" wheels, the 4" will look better.
Yes i know it sounds daft. But when there is a 3/4" shot of my car, the exhaust looks horrendously massive. But its mainly as the 15" sharkteeth are throwing off the whole look. Seeing my mates car with a 4" and on 18" wheels, its proportionally better looking. The same way if you ran big wheels and had a 3.5" tailpipe, it would look "too small"
All in my opinion of course.

Fiesta may have a big cut out for the exhaust, but its too big a pipe for such a small car. But it defo does suit it better than the 3.5" one i took off a fiesta rst a broke recently!
The cossie however deserves a large tailpipe in my opinion. Not silly jap sized like 5" etc. But just a nice lout/yob sized 4" one. Lol.

The main problem is the fact that it doesn't have one on it!! 
I could buy a new standard one but then I'd have to cut, extend and weld the downpipe to fit, mess about with it where it runs by the Supra diff etc so by the time I've done all that, the cost won't be a lot more.
