Hey Larry,
Both 2.5 and 3" will get the job done. I would look at quality,
fit, and muffler sound that you like. I ran 11's with a 2.5" exhaust
and summit cheapy turbo mufflers and ran 10's with 4" flowmaster loud
pipes! The current Borla system fits in all the factory mounting
locations and is made of SS. I picked it up off the Summit clearance
counter for under $300. I like the flowmaster sound a little better
than the borla but price, fit, and quality won out. Here are a few
pics of the system http://www.personal.kent.edu/~wbainey/BORLA.htm
