You will have to use a tape measurer or caliper (better) to measure diameter of pipe.I found that removing center mufflers produces a richer note.I don't know if your single exhaust,but duals would be so much better.I like the flowmaster 40 series muffler.As for wheels try tirerack,and click tires for your car,optional sizes and rear larger.larger wheel in rear is good for drag racing.But if you want to use your muscle anywhere,same sizes all around.

What have you done finally? I removed the 1st muffler(it's not a resonator) on my 600 and it did not change anything because the second muffler is pretty restrictive and muffles the sound really well. Also when I removed the second muffler and left the first one on, it made a BIG difference because the only thing remaining are the cats (does verry little effect) and the first muffler which is a straight through perforated muffler. Therefore the sound left is loud but sounds a very mellow "woohwhooo" ish with no rumble. I'm planing to go with 2 flowmasters (either 40 delta or 50 delta) with no muffler at all so I can keep (accentuate) the rumble. If it's too loud on idle 2 bullet sort staight through mufflers will do the job of quieting the sound at idle but will keep the roar.
What are your plans/have done?

ps. 2 x 2.5 NO MORE!!!!!!!!!
2.25 is ok specially if you don't floar it past 5k rpm
