To be or not to be

Im opening this thread for suggestions on whether I should go for my exhaust either 3" all the way or 2.5" at Y gate both exiting pipes. The shop stated 2.5 both ends starting at the Y so I can hv some back pressure but our cars are DIESELS so I beleive it might not make a difference. So let the games begin any advice is better than none. Gracias

3 inch, unless their is a fittament issue where it is to big, 3.5 for the exhaust tips, looks meaner...since it's a diesel do dual smoke stacks like a big rig...

That should give PR a lot of ideas...
I surely hope this trend never hits our shores. Plywood and drainage pipes will be scarce.

I know a guy who ran 4" pipes on his 335d and he increased 10 HP easily. Before this exhaust he was a virgin and after it, I kid you not, the guy had more poon than a gynecologist.

Has nothing to do with being diesel except that almost all diesels are turbocharged.

The turbocharger provides the baby but of back pressure. Everything post turbo should be as free flowing as your taste/budget/fitment allows.
