Also what size would suit best from ECS’s website for the default 2.25in pipe?
If goal is only better sound I would either cut the resonator off and replace it with exhaust pipe or go to a low restriction mufflers. A muffler shop could do either in a short amount of time. No need to go to larger diameter pipe. I would contact ECS to be sure you get the right size.
