Default 2.5" BIG ENOUGH FOR ABOUT 225WHP FORCED INDUCED?

Hi, my honda civic came with a 2.5" cat-back system, do you guys think that should be big enough for my car to breathe with about 225 WHP? Some of my friends said that should be good enough but others said upgrading to 3" would be better, what do you guys think? Oh and does the brand matter?If so, why?whats the difference like the way it sounds or what?

3" would be nice, but if 600 can be made on 3" then 225 on 2.5" should be attainable.

Up the boost, thats all you really have to do. A 3" would help spool time and overall power, but get a kit first, then upgrade. Its better to spend more on the 'core' kit than on extra **** like a 3" exhaust.
