I would only recomnad 3in down pipe if you are using a t4 or up! Most t3/t4 the exhaust opening are only for 2 1/2 inch downpipes.

All you need is 2.5 inch. Your not gonna gain much more top end with 3 Inch and your gonna lose a little bit down low power.

I would only recommend 3 Inch for those running high boost.
