Welcome to the Michigan FBody Association website.
The Michigan FBody Association is a centralized website for FBody enthusiasts to discuss what's going on in the Michigan area. MiFbody.com was created to allow for an easy one-stop place to find out what's going on in Michigan as far as FBody events, to find out what clubs are available in your immediate area, and for an easy place to post classifieds for items you want to sell! Our goal was to create a more close-knit community of FBody enthusiasts in the state of Michigan, and to bring Camaro and Firebird enthusiasts alike together for some amazing FBody events!
The most important thing to know about the Michigan FBody Association is that we are NOT a club! The Michigan FBody Association is open to everyone, and is a community. Thus, we will have get togethers, casual cruises, events, and such like that, but this is not an exclusive club and it's 100% free to join this site! So what are you waiting for? Register now!

I have the whole system. It's called the American Thunder system lol. Stock exhaust is 2.75in I pipe, and the muffler is 2.25in. I believe, but for a 97 z28. The Flowmaster has a 3in I pipe, and it reduces down to 2.5in at the muffler. 2.5 in, 2.5 out.
The muffler is just a 80series though. I got mine system for $200.
Is there anywhere around us where I can go and buy a cat back system in a store or shop?
It seems like my only option is to order one and have it shipped to me than find a shop to put it on for me. I don't want to do it myself
In my experience, retailers like to markup big time.
Any exhaust shop will be able to put it on.
I ordered mine from Autoanything.com. They shipped pretty fast. I got it the next day.
IMO you definitely want no less than a 3" single. Granted my car isnt stock, but going from a single open 3" dump to 3" duals with mufflers gained me some noticeable power.
I had just a flowmaster muffler welded on my car less than a month after I bought the car brand new. I had them keep the stock tips, etc. The car stayed that way for 8 yrs until I put the turbo's on it back in 2007. Only issue I had was I had to upgrade the air intake lid to flow better. The car was leaning out with just the muffler. I guess it flowed better than the stock one. After the lid, all was well and never had any issues. It could drone a little on the highway depending on how fast you were going. That was usually my indicator that I was too close or over 80mph.

I just had the muffler welded on at a Muffler Man shop. I think I picked the muffler up used from someone on one of the boards. Hell, I am pretty sure I still have the flowmaster muffler/tips and whisper lid somewhere in my barn.... Might have to dig all that out and sell it.
