So, I didn't make much of a technical decision so much as a gut check decision. Because the blackheart was cheaper than kooks, but kooks was cheaper than buying both.
Some A Mamo logic right there .

Exactly. I went through it the hard way on my car starting with 2.25" duals and kept messing with it before eventually ending up with 3" duals which I should have got in the first place. Other than space constraints there is no reason not to IMO.

Only reason I ran 2.5" on my truck is the shop charged me less for 2.5" and it's a daily driver that won't ever see more than 320 rwhp or so even if I did headers and heads which at this point aren't even being considered.
