if its a y pipe I would go 3". If true duals I would go 2.5" if you plan on lowering.

When your cruising or just driving around normal is your exhaust really loud? Im planning on a setup alot like yours and want to know when im on the interstate and stuff if it will be roaring the whole time or not.
