Default which size exhaust piping??

ok heres the deal, currently have d15b7 motor, i do plan to swap in a b16 or b18 but not anytime soon, i want to get the megan racing catback from street styler cause its a pretty decent price only $350 with shipping, but it comes in 2.5 inch pipping, is that a big deal compared to the 2.25 inch piping, will i feel a loss in power or is that size fine?

you'll be fine for the time being. The power you could possibly lose (there's no absolute garuntee that you'll even lose power... just a chance) won't be noticeable.

The general rule of thumb is 2.5" or smaller for NA vehicles and 2.5"+ for FI vehicles. Most people say 2.25" because it's a pretty common pipe size that happens to be right in the middle of the recommended minimum pipe size (2") and recommended maximum pipe size (2.5") for a NA car.
