RE: exhuast size question
robbing 5-10hp is not a big deal to me, but spooling quicker is a huge deal for me.
I guess I'll see if I can easily get 2.75 done at the shop, if not, I'll check pricing on 2.5 and 3

I'm make believe

I great compromise would be getting a 3" cat section and downpipe and then either a 2.75 or 2.5" catback. This works much better than 2.5" turboback and still offers a quiter ride and better performance/spool up

If 3" is easier and cheaper it sounds good to me. So long as I can find a classy muffler that is REALLY REALLY quiet but doesn't impact performance 2 much. (quietest not restrictive muffler???)
I heard borlas are pretty quiet.
dha514, I can't go catless, I'm limited here in Vancouver, B.C. for that. It's not as tough as Califonia, but we have emissions testing and can be pulled over for a loud exhuast, etc.
Haha... I live in Southern California. But I am still getting a 3" turboback exhaust.

RE: exhuast size question
if you use both mufflers, borla is pretty quiet until you step on it. i like the way it sounds better with just 1 muffler tho, but dont get the borla system, its only 2.25. techtonics is 2.5 w/ borla mufflers, or you can custom make your own pipes and buy the mufflers from borla (what i would do)
