Default what size piping would be ideal for this set up?

hey guys, well first off heres my set up
D16z6
t25 turbo set up
2 1/2 DP, 3" Test pipe, 2 1/4" exhaust

Origianlly when i bolted the downpipe to the test pipe, it wasent matching up that great, leaving a big gap on the left size to cause i nice size exhaust leak. Well i was driving like that for about a week, and just now, i customized it to fit up perfect. Everything is running smoother, but it feels like i lost power! (mostly at high end 4.5kup) is it my exhaust? Should i upgrade to 3" all around?

3" all around would be ideal.
