Default stock exhaust size going into muffler and exiting muffler???

what size is the stock exhaust pipe where it enters the muffler? and what size are the exit pipes? i have a 99 WS6 T/A but i think the pipes are the same as the regular T/A or Z28 exhaust. i'm getting ready to order a replacement muffler and need to pick between 2.5" in/out and 3" in/out.

thanks in advance...

If I'm not mistaken, the WS6 has a 2.75" intermediary pipe entering the muffler. The non SS and WS6 cars have a 2.5" pipe.

i was thinking the intermediate pipe was 2 3/4 but didn't know if it necked down before entering the muffler. are the exit pipes 2 1/4 or 2 1/2? i guess i could get the 3" in / 3" out replacement muffler and my exhaust shop could make it work.

I think all the cars are 2.75" going into the muffler right?

The pipe on my Formula is 2.75 but it necked downright at the muffler. I used a 3" in and 2.5" outs on mine.

At the point my Z28 exhaust was hacked near the axle, it's 2.75. I'm pretty sure the pipes out of the muffler are 2.25, as I recently measured while looking for a 2.5 90* turn.
