I'm sure you already know the answer. 3 inch. You aleady have a 3" downpipe. Why would you want to neck down to something smaller?

well you shouldn't have gotten a 3 in downpipe
seel it on H-T and get 2.5
you might even make a profit

i am using 3 inch DP back and it`s not touching anything.

i switched back to 2.5 a while ago becasue of the noise but it slowed down BIG time.
def.ly get the 3 inch.
