Should be 2-1/2" at the entrance and exit of the cat. If its a factory Y-pipe for that year, the cat is made onto the Y-pipe. If its been modified, it could be different..

2" from the manifolds and 2 1/2 before the muffler I think. And then mine is 3" after the muffler I believe.

You'll want a muffler. These things sound like crap without one.
