Go with 3" or 4" on it or a better turbo.

don't listen to the dodgeboy.

2.5" crossover pipe, 3" turbo back, 4x12" tip sounded EPIC on mine. I got "I've NEVER heard a 6.5 sound that GOOD" a lot.

Remember if you get an aftermarket air intake, or just remove the turbo silencer, you get a lot more whistle out the front end.

On a side note,
best turbo whistle out the exhaust I've ever heard was 4in out in front of the passenger rear tire.

if you dont like a lot of resonance when at high way speeds use a dynomax bullet muffler. still gives you that strait pipe sound but without a whole lot of resonance
