Default 3" downpipe?

Would a 3" downpipe be to much? I am looking to have a new downpipe made for this turbo project and thought if 2.5 is good maybe 3" would be better???? Turbo guro's help me out here, thanks..

boost creep usually comes if you run an open DP. some people get it with 3" though. depends on your goals, but if you want your turbo to spool faster 3" is the way to go
