The most important thing to remember is to keep it the same size all the way from the header through the muffler. 21/4-21/2 seems to work for NA cars. You might want to go 21/2-3 inch if you plan on going turbo.
------------------
Its not an on ramp, its a test track
if your motor is stock, i'd put 2 on it. if it's a zc or b16, i think the consensus is 2.25. if turbo, go as big as you can..3 or so.

NC_Rex did an awesome post on the sizings for this based on displacement/application. It's somewhere way back early in the threads. Maybe he has a copy of it somewhere.
The B16A SiR came out with 2inch exhaust pipe bent and a twin megaphone tip that is formed off a "y" junction off the muffler.
