You don't need 3 inch, but you'll have to have one custom fabricated. Nobody sells them that I have ever heard of. Shouldn't cost more than $100, if that. It's a really simple 90 degree pipe if I remember right.

I'd imagine it would be more than $100 for a quality downpipe with flexpipe and an O2 bung...were you just talking about a straight pipe?

it only has one bend in it...because the greddy uses a cast flage that bolts to the turbo, then the dp mounts to that. if you want a flexpipe, yes it will be more but they're not necessary...nice to have though.

BTW...I would just go with 2.5" on the DP. If you really want 3" you can use a flare to go out to 3, that's what I'm doing on my new one for my b18. I used a 2.5" back to my 3" cat with my t3/t04e on my sohc.

Yeah, flex joints are just sections of that flexible exhaust repair piping like Autozone sells covered with steel braid. They can help to keep your exhaust manifold from cracking that sometimes results from the engine vibrating while the exhaust is stiff.
