After the res I'd say 2- 2 1/4.. I got three inch after it Ys.. Had to use 4 extra fittings but the 3 inch gives a beautiful rumple-crackle letting off the throttle at 3000+ rpm.. Cabin is hell lol i drive with rear seats folded down for my system but they immediately went UP haha

I deleted the resonator and had Magnaflow mufflers with custom 3" from my dp back and it sucked on the freeway. I can't imagine having no mufflers! Yikes!
