Default another exhaust opinion

k... u can see my setup on my sig.... i know that 2.25 and 2.5 are good for N/A engines... now... i hate why when it comes to myself its so hard to decide...
i got intake, i just got headers(2"outlet), wich will be going in tomorrow, and a exhaust that has a 2.5 inlet (not installed yet)....
i am getting a brand new cat + a custom made aluminum piping all the way to the back.. now the only doubt in wich i want opinions its... should i go 2.5 after the cat all the way to the back or just 2.25???? any experience opinions or feedbacks will be good!
here are some pics of my stuff

2.25 would do you wrong, but of course 2.5" would be nice. Not only that, if you do start to push those bigger numbers then it will start to help you a lot more. Others should chim in and give their ideas soon

chk sig

I got a 60mm cat and a 2.25" muffler, thats why i choosed a 2.25 b-pipe. It's not bad, but i know some guys who drive 2.5" b-pipe and muffler and thats better, it produces more power in den mid- and highrange.

If u got a 2.5" muffler, go for 2.5" b-pipe

KTeller8 - those are nice pics! In Texas, and noone does Mandrel - noone. A couple of shops said they did, but it wasn't true - the pipe was still crush-bent...

I know this guy who ordered the greddy MX exhaust for the CRX Si, and had a 7.5" extension pipe made for $40 - the flanges are on the str8 part of that particular exhaust, so the extension was straight fit-up for his hatchback. It was very quiet.

that was aluminized
for the same 2.25 or 2.5" setup in SS with the Es Oval muffler- it would be 315 shipped.

yeah they are right now they are for sale, im me if thats all you want... also i can do the Es style in 3"

3" piping with Es style muffler would run aluminized 330
