Stop in for a cup of coffee

Well.. i am planning on just 2.5" exhaust anyway... should i just stick with these or would i see much advantage going to 3" headers down to the 2.5 anyway... i just am too old for a droning loud *** flowmaster setup ever again :)
Went 3" down to 2.5 on my Scamp, bought Pypes, pipe and mufflers all stainless new for $500 and happy with them.
