Default Exhaust ?
For boosted tC's would 2.5" or 3" exhaust piping be better why/why not? And which will deliver the most power?On some posts its says that 3" is too much for our cars I just want to clarify.

You can always get a cutout right after your spipe to get some more performance. Cheap HP FTW.

I have 2.5" on my car..... but I'm not boosted. I see it as a preference choice.
