Common sense tells me going with a larger diameter exhaust will yield more HP but " may " give up too much torque . It is a fine line . Have you dyno'd your setup ?
It's all about what rpm you want max efficientcy & then optimize pipe diameter for that rpm. For street driving I shoot for 3000rpm. Your engine is so unique I would ask JR what you should use. I try to have everything ceramic coated to keep the heat inside also.
