Ive got one on mine. 2.5" is stock size, but 2.5" exhaust tubing is a LOT more open and better flowing. Heres mine. Mine is the crossover now, but Im gonna use it when I go intercooled as well, or make a 3" one, which is possible too. You just want to use thick enough steel for the base so it doesnt warp and give you leaks.

I used 3/8" I believe. I was gonna use 1/2" but figured 3/8 would do and it does. I kept the grid heater. Im using a blank right now, but fixing to drop a functional one back in it.
