Final Verdict on Exhaust pipe

OK, people. So, for a 2k2 civic EX, what is the best exhaust pipe size? The stock size is, what, 1 7/8 (?), something like that? So, is 2" perfect for this car or what?

Depends on what other mods you want to do. If you dont plan on any FI, stick with 2" or 2.25", with FI you would want to upgrade to 2.5" or maybe even 3" piping.

2.25" is enough, and 3" is good if you have turbo.

well, i'm not going to be making any major mods, so would 2" be good enough? all i have is the short ram intake, i've removed the resonator, and i've got the Magnaflow muffler.
