hey DVH...when i got my exhaust done most of the responses were for 2 inch piping, that way you wont lose too much power. so thats what i went with and i like it, i also have a I4 (mines SOHC) but again id say go with 2inch...later<P>chris 93RS

I'd go with 2 1/4 casue you have a DOHC and it will exhale better with 2 1/4(you might lose more bottom but will gain alittle more on top) either way it's your choice, just don't cheap out, get some nice stainless piping with a good muffler ie. APEXI, 5zigen, HKS or magnaflow
