What is the issue with using Arqray Single Tip w/ SC cars?

sorry been out of the boards for a while but noted that the single tip is not good for the SC cars on the sector111 site. What's the deal?

Thanks

the tubing size is reduced to 1.75" in the portion that is inside the muffler. I don't think this is good for any car. 2.5 down to 1.75....I guess it has to make sense to someone.

I've got a BWR supercharger and have an Arqray single tip. I haven't had any issues with many trips to the track.

There are single tip exhausts with small internal tubing (meant for NA motors) and with large internal tubing (meant for FI motors). It's tougher to get good muffling action with larger internal pipe diameter, so the manufacturer only makes it as large as the application needs.
