No, the pipe that goes into the muffler is about 2 1/4"

Pretty sure the whole system is 2.5 in and out of everything. I have resonator delete and its just patched with a 2.5" pipe.

The resonator is a part of the same pipe so its the same diameter on either end. None of the exhaust piping is 3".

^yeah. 3" pipe is far too big for that motor unless you're makin 320+hp. And there would be no reason to expand the end fittings. It's all the same from the cat back.

Just a random little question about my coupe.. I dropped my car about 2+ inches when I got my coilovers. Got an alignment and everything is about OEM spec, riding nicely. How bad would raising the car, maybe an inch, affect my camber, toe, etc.?

?

You were able to get your alignment into OEM spec with a 2"+ drop on stock control arms?

Anyway, if you were to raise it, you would just need an alignment again.

Nope. Front and rear camber kit. So I would need an alignment? Would I have too much positive camber, toe, etc?

If everything's fine at 2" everything will be fine at anything less after you get an alignment. Toe can be adjusted. Btw, I just got perfect alignment today after replacing like EVERY suspension part. A bit off topic, but I'm super excited cuz I've been Working on it for months. Teehee

Well what I'm trying to avoid is an alignment lol. Goes for about $150 here. They say it costs more because "I have aftermarket parts". Tf...
What all did you replace GDirty?
