Default 2 1/2 inch i-pipe?

I recently installed Pacesetter race headers and ORY, I had a Corsa exhaust but the y-pipe and i-pipe did not line up, so I had to get an i-pipe custom made, since so many places here were not willing to help me out because either they did not sell the parts or install them I had to go to the one place that would help me, except they only were able to work with pipes up to 2 1/2 inches, so by having a 2 1/2 inch i-pipe instead of the 3 inch how many troubles will I have and how much power am I giving up. Thanks in advance.

Can't give an exact number of power lose. Probably nothing SOTP. It is best to run 3inch all the way through though.

The stock exhaust is 2 1/2".

Stock sucks.

I'd get this fixed up quick.

Any GOOD exhaust place should be able to handle it.
