At lower RPM there will be very little noticeable difference on a b16 whether you are on the 2 1/4 or 2 1/5.

I ran full 2.5 on my old b16a hatch, it had skunk2 stage two cams. It was fine. To be completely honest they dont have much torque anyway, so i didnt notice much of a difference from the stock exhaust on the low end, but she would scream at high rpms.
