i go from like 3 to like 1.5. I used the stock civic piping for exhaust to save money on the swap. Probably not a good idea.

Well it won't hurt your car but it will rob you of power. So your down pipe is 3?

It is all about fluid dynamics. You will have to figure out the best route for the air to go.

You have a dc sport 4 to 1 header and a 3" downpipe? I say ditch the header and downpipe. Get a better header. A shop can custom a 2.5" downpipe for you.

Do not go 3 inch exhaust on a N/A Motor. If you have a DC Header is about 2.25 pipping on the inside. Go with 2.5 exhaust. You will get the most power out of it staying N/A. Thats saying your going to mod the motor more.
