Re: stock exhaust question
I could be wrong, but I think if you measured an original, the main pipe coming from the cat would be 2.25" or less at the bends, and no larger than 2.5" in the straight.

Re: stock exhaust question
Since the factory pipe seems to split the difference between your choices, I'd suggest the 3" pipe.
