Hi Yung,

Welcome to our new Airtrek Club.
Better in terms of what? it depends on what U want; silence, comfort, fuel economy, power, louder exhaust note, looks, etc.

I presume U intend to change the rear muffler as well, since U're asking this question...heheee.

U can check with bro kaninbu, he is looking for someone to trade/buy a stock muffler.

If you're planning mild modification like exhaust, filter, intercooler and increased boost only, then 2.5" is the best. It still retains the low end torque as well as preserve city-drivability.

If you're going for more serious mod like 2.2L stroker, big turbo, high-cams, higher fuel inject etc etc to reach the 'above 350hp' mark.. then 3" will be good for you. Usually at this point, the trek is no longer auto.

I guess it'll be good to retain at 2.5" based on your mods. What are the cam degrees? If you're going above 27x, does that means u will have plans for hardcore mods in future?

change higher cam need proper tuning.if not u lose alot low end torque.sluggish at low speed.
airtrek ori piping is 2.5inch.if u change ur cam to higher degree,u need better air flow/exhaust system.2.8 is a must.
msd ignition?confirm going 300whp lo.no point changing if mild mod.ori is very sufficient.
nonit stroker kit also nevermind.
wif ur current upgrade,u r goin 280whp boosting 1.5bar with additional higher cc injector,bigger turbo,fmic
