    2.5" will make the car lose power in the lower RPM range.

        Yes, it'll still be drivable.
        She/You won't have anything to worry about.


        There are plenty of people on here with 2.5" exhaust on their F-series.

                    Its a trade off 2 1/4 youll gain downlow but lose uptop. With a 2.5 youll lose downlow which hondas really dont have all that much and gain more up-top.

                      As soon as you put a stage 2 or 3 bisi cam in the f22a though, you'll be close enough to the H22's power that the 2.5" shouldn't hurt you much in any range really. The stock f22, or one with bolt-ons just doesn't move enough air.

                        I assume you mean a bisi stage 2 or 3 cam with supporting modifications. The jump from a stock 105 whp F22aX to a stock 165 whp H22a isn't quite as easily done as slapping a new bump-stick in.


                        Regardless, 2.5" will be fine. The only thing I'd be vaguely worried about would be the noise level. And as that's really just a creature comfort, so you'll be fine either way.

                          Of course the supporting things too. I didn't bother to say it because who's going to do it backwards?

                            it will be fine dude. exhaust size is the least of your worries at this point in time

                              Very true. Cant dyno it and tell for sure but my i gained low end a bit. Everybody who drove it before and after i got the 2.5 can feel the torque more in the lower end now! maybe i got freak pipe. Its loud as hell though but that may be due to my lack of a resonator and my magnaflow muffler lol. I got 2 tickets to prove it lol. Getting it fixed tommorrow hopefully!
