I am wondering if this is engineered to increase velocity or was it simply a matter of that small of a difference does not matter and 2.5 inch is much easier to get than the wier d2.75 inch bmw likes to use in other applications?
Are we talking ID or OD? Can have the same ID but different OD as they might different wall thickness.
