quick question - stock piping

Quick question, what is our stock piping?

And i know we shouldn't go with aftermarket 2.5" but rather 2.25" but why did that concept vic go with 2" piping? Im thinking of just going with 2" custom piping..What do you guys think?

ak can only hope to improve
1.75" is stock . I was wondering the SAME thing last night... someone said with 2" we lose hp and torque, but has it been proven??????? Maybe 2.25" is really the best since most aftermarket setups come with 2.25" mandrel piping.

I really don't think it makes a huge difference with our cars. I mean maybe with a V8 mustang the diameter would make a difference, but i think 2" should be fine. I mean, if there isn't dyno charts then it hasn't happened, right? Why don't u guys try and get some dynos done, but i really don't think you will gain or lose much.
