Default Ok last time! Please only professionals! Muffler inlet size

wow this is my 4th thread and I still cant get a strait answer. So far I have gotten three completely different answers on what inlet size flowmaster 40 I need for my single stock exaust. Now I am not saying anyones wrong who posted for me but I keep seeming to get different answers ... One said I need a single in single out 2.5 inlet and 2.5 outlet...Another says I need a single in single out 3" inlet and 3" outlet...and to top it off someone told me a 3" inlet and 2.5" outlet

PLEASEEEEEE LOL This newb just wants a muffler dont make me kill myself lol

Stock is 2.5 in/out then the pipe size increases to the resonator and on out the back of the truck.

i have an 06 and my stock exhaust tubing was 3 inch. i got a flowmaster 40 series installed 3 in and dual 2.5s out. are you doing si/do? if so i would measure the stock piping just before the stock muffler ( dpont get confused with the resonators you should have 2 one before and one after the muffler) if its 3 inch in i would do 3 inch out if single outlet and 2.5 if dual outlets. you would have had your answer already if you just measured it yourself. unless dodge changed exhaust tubing size from 05 to 06 then i would think it would be the same. already you have a few different answers again.

if you are installing the muffler by a professional at a muffler shop, it doesn't matter what size you get as long as you got a bigger size than what you have. b/c a muffler shop can adjust a pipe to a size. Trust me i used to hang out at a muffler shop when i was younger.
