Default twin loop muffler...3inch piping...weird deceleration

just installed a twin loop muffler with 3 inch piping.. versus a 2 inch midpipe..

in the lower gears, if i let off the gas right around 2500 rpm and let the car coast before stopping...the ride becomes really bumpy as it slows down

i had a custome 2 inch tip added to the muffler because I didn't want it to be that noticable.. would this have any effect on it?
thanks

exhaust dont make your rid bumper unless its hitting something. shoulda went with 2.25 in or 2.5-3in for turbo.

I bet you got a 3in for a stock sohc, and you LOST low end. HAHAHAHAHHAAHHA ANEWBIE

i know im noob.. i admit it.. actually i did know that.. but i figured it wouldnt be that much differentce since its just an exhaust, and the 3 inch was dirt cheap still I shoulda paid the extra to do it right the first time..

who cares about low end torque.. i just wag the tail back and forth to hide the loss
like in initial D

rather than redo that exhaust, just boost the motor.
