I'm guessing most FMIC hard pipes are in the region of anywhere between 3-4" diameter. But there's bound to be differences between brands.

So, firstly, I don't suppose you know the make and/or model of your FMIC? If so, then it should be easy to contact the relavent supplier to get your answer...

In my head lol, and in comparison to my 4" tailpipe, my Hyperflow's ones look more like between 3-4"! I'll go out later and wrap a tape measure round one...


If they're not all a std 'DIN' size between brands, then unfortunately our posts are potentially useless to the OP.

Diameter and circumference are 2 different things, most pipe is measured via diameter

Yeah, but what I meant was I can easily work out the diameter from the circumference...

It's hard to accurately measure the diamteter of a pipe when you can't do it end on.

lol yes!

That said, I'm prob wrong anyway... Just that in my head, they look 'fat' i.e. possibly greater than the 63mm/2.5".

I'm prob talking sh1te though. Won't be the first time lol

76mm is 3" which is exhaust and sometimes inlet size, maybe that's why it's in your head
