They are not designed for any additional backpressure which would come from such an addition... I would not do it. These are very quiet sets... not hospital grade quiet, but damn quiet to me. Do you find yours is loud??

Thats your call... set was designed for the pipe size as is. Larger shouldnt be a penalty (typically isnt on diesel systems as they do not want backpressure). I would just make sure you do not have needless angles or bends in the exit pipe.

Also if you run additional piping, you will want a flexible section of pipe somewhere in line to basically dissipate any excess NVH (noise, vibration, harshness).
