specs for midpipe

Does anyone know the specs for a midpipe for a SRI on a 2000? I am looking to put together my own, but not quite sure of the specs. Much thanks!

See how much room you have from the Throttlebody to the fender! also depends if that setup will include a bellmouth or huge 6" inlet filter etc.....

yeah i know the length and the size of the pipe but I'm not sure about the T section. where the hose goes to the engine. and also if there are any other pipes i need to hook up. Need just specs for midpipe not the whole intake

3" pipe x 7"long, the t is 5/8 tube with 1/4 inch tee. close enough anyway.

well, think about this... in a way it's like a bell, different material will make it sound different, thinner metal will sound different than thick plastic... so it's all up to you to find the sound you want

Then just simply fill the void if you have all the other parts, I found using different length silicon couplings, like (3" dia.X 3" long) helped lengthen my intake a couple of inches over using (3" dia X 2" long couplings). You need to do a mock/test fit until you can find your missing link....Then fab it and make any other adjustment for proper fitment...IMO! It's really fun doing your own, I would search to get some ideas and make a few mockups till you find what In your opinion is going to work for you...
