I don't think any Tanabe exhaust is 2.75. I believe the Integra is 2.5. 85% sure the exhaust for SOHC bodied Civic's are 2 3/8.

Tanabe states 2.5" but that's measured from the outside of the pipe. Factor in the thickness of the metal and the bottlenecks and it's less than 2.5."

well my tanabe with the stock D16 since loud at all. It start to get loud around 4k, but that isnt the case on the accords, because my brother in-law has one and his ***** is loud from 1.5k and up.
Over all i like the way it looks and the nice mellow sound of it. oh well i guess i gotta sell it if i wanna go turbo.

It will be fine for turbo, you'll be able to make plenty of power with that exhaust. Sure, you'll get a few more horses out of a 3 inch system, but your current setup isn't going to kill you.

Yea 2.5 is too small for turbo aplication. Save for a custom or Thermal three inch piping. What is the size of your downpipe?
