Re: people with true duals, please read Do you plan on giong over the axle?
If not, I'd go with 3". Thats what I have, and my clearance is just as good (if not better) as the Hooker y-pipe was. btw... My car is lowered with the Eibach Pro-kit.
Does it scrape?... Sometimes. But never very bad, and only on tall speed bumps.

Re: people with true duals, please read If you're going over the axle, used 3 inch up to the x crossover and 2.5 after. You can get a crossover than is 3 inch in and 2.5 out. With turndowns, I would simply use all 3 inch. That's What I did. I made my exhaust myself, and it has better ground clearance than my old mac y pipe. The new exhaust has never hit the ground. A word to the wise...It's gonna be loud if you just use bullet mufflers and turndowns before the axle, though the cats should reduce the noise some.

Re: people with true duals, please read I'm running 3" to just before the axles, then have them flange-bolted to 2 1/2" tailpipes to go over the axles. I had them flanged so the tailpipes could come off for track use. I am eventually going to have the cats flanged and removable as well for the same purpose. No cats and just bullet mufflers was way too loud for everyday street use, so I added 3" cats. Still a little loud, but bearable. Sounds great!
