Hey guys I got 2.25" custom cat back for my car. After that I installed a 2.5" Rv6 chatted downpipe plus a 2.5" front pipe. So in theory the exhaust is bottlenecking... My question is should I go back and upgrade for a bigger cat back? Would it be louder or more raspy? LX sedan 2.0L

I got a magna flow street series catback with a rv6 catted dp and it runs fine. I had an invidia exhaust with larger piping and it was way too raspy. I have a 2019 coupe with a 2.0na.

What diameter is the magna cat back? I know the invdia is 3". But mine is only 2.25". I feel like it should be at least 2.5". Does yours also pop a lil bit when you rev match ?

The Magna flow is 2.25. The car is a cvt and when it's coming down from 5.5k and passes 4k it starts to crackle and pop like crazy.
