powerflow do custom exhausts.. any noise you want / specs etc
but tbh.. a supersprint system and mani is probs the best... not to loud but loud enough to make you smile  specially if its cammed etc

2.5" bore is perfectly fine for 99% of boosted TU applications

It all depends on the application, too big and you risk loosing the back pressure required.

i would predict a 2.5 inch exhaust most tu charged engines are running 2.5 and seems to be good. What about a btb exhaust if you can get hold of one?
