    Your stock piping is 2.25". The choice of size that you want is up to you.
    I drink..so consider that when reading my posts.

    Is the stock piping 2.25? I thought it was 2.5" was for gtp and 2.25" was for the 3100 SE.. The 2.5" glasspack just slid onto my catback and was able to slide inside my cat...

    I would only get a cat if you have emissions. Running careless will set a code for the downstream o2 sensor. That code can be tuned out.

    No.

    It bottle necks.

    Sell the downpipe and buy the pacesetters like I told you in your other thread.

    isnt the stock cat good to 300 hp?if so wont be a bottle neck untill he reaches that amount of hp.
    op: if you do keep the 3'' downpipe, then yes you need 3'' to 2.25' reducer so it will fit t your cat.

    Who is Pacesetter? You know that reoccurring nightmare you have? Pacesetter is kinda like that. He builds you up just to destroy you, then you wake up and realize its just a dream.
