". There are many schools of thought to this :) I think the small to big school gives better low end torque, while the full straight through gives better high end. But you are always gonna be stuck with LTA approved cat back systems which are usually 2.75" at the cat end."
That's the wrong school of thought .. either way .. small exhaust or restrictions or whatever is NEVER good for engines ..there's no such thing as smaller = better low end torque .. bigger = lose low end but better high ..
how much hp you want will dictate how big the exhaust you have .. local context .. a streetable 400+hp engine 2.75" is more than enough ..

well .. they invented it :P
be careful though .. americans live their car lives in seconds .. the rest of the world does it on a racetrack.. their methods and ideas is a go fast or go home cowboy style .. their cars cannot be driven on the roads as it is not a road car at all (as in not drivable no power from 0-6000rpms then 1000hp from then onwards)
you want fast road cars .. look to the brits .. their road cars are fast and drivable ..

yes .. no kidding ..
their cars are designed to support that .. not a road race
drive the pony car if you have the chance ..
I've driven the mustang, the corvette (missed the viper ! sheez), camaro SS .. all these cars > 4L engine .. but chassis can only go straight ..

hahah .. that's abit too much lah .. rough and ride horses :P
it's what they call 'oldschool' nowadays .. and its not to a certain extent .. it is predominant in US .. ever notice International F1 series does not include US as a location ??

eh .. good try ??
That's an Indy 500 track .. no doubt it can be converted to F1 if required .. but still not an International F1 ..
BTW their indy cars are almost similar to F1 cars .. probably some ruling differeences .. but shape looks the same .. so easy to get confused .. I know I was for a while.

"Don't hate, appreciate."
not hating, just comparing.. V8s are nice .. but technology wise .. still way behind .. engine is built for brute power using cc .. chassis is designed for big American butt and comfort, not handling (not even a compromise) ..
"FYI the "chassis-can-only-go-straight" cars have been giving Ferrari a hard time in Le Mans for the last few years. They're also competitive in SCCA Speed World Challenge, 12 Hours Sebring etc.

A corolla with enough mods can outturn an evo with the kind of money involved at these races ..
