Have Deere 6404 diesel with no turbo.
Existing exhaust exits engine manifold with 2.25-inch Inside Diameter pipe into riser and mixing elbow (also 2.25 inch ID) where it eventually attaches to standard 3-inch ID exhaust hose to muffler and out the boat.
If I were to decrease the ID of the riser and mixing elbow to 2-inch ID would that 1/4 inch reduction in ID create any adverse back-pressure or any other adverse consequences?
Will still connect to the 3-inch ID hose to the muffler, etc., but would have 1/4-inch reduction in ID between manifold and muffler hose.
Any issues or problems with that?
Please advise
Thank you
