F22A in there? Without mods to make use of that wider piping, you won't really benefit from anything larger than 2.25". A good header, some headwork, and a cam will justify that... otherwise, you just lost considerable low end.

[F20A CB7]

acutally i didnt feel any low end missing the car pulls stronger thru out the gears. i have the f20a sohc motor.

[deevergote]

Oh, ok... the F20A may make decent use of that then... Not sure, since the displacement is smaller than the F22A, but the redline is higher, and the power is greater (suggesting better head flow, I suppose) 2.5" is usually best for the H series swaps.

Hey 2.5 is good for the H? So i have 2.25 now with my f, when the H goes in (which is very soon btw) do i need to up my piping to 2.5? Will there be a considerable gain from a quarter of an inch?

2.5" is optimal... 2.25" will work, but the H22 makes the power up top... and with a smaller diameter piping, it won't make as much. The gain may not be considerable, but it's worth mentioning.

HOw do u feel towards a stock CAT, any cat aftermarket should b better then stock. i found this cat i may get along with 2.25 flex pipe.

[deevergote]

The stock cat is actually fairly free flowing... however, you may want to get a wider diamter cat, since you've opened up the rest. Might as well get a 2.5" flex pipe, too... and eventually a header with a 2.5" colletor. Any bottleneck in the exhaust system will be a restriction. It's like drinking through a straw while pinching it in the middle.
