Default Arh 1 3/4?

Does anyone know if you can get the 3 x 3 catted xpipe with the 1 3/4? ARH's website only shows 3 x 3 with their 1 7/8.

ARH makes headers that have 1 7/8" or 1 3/4" primaries. They merge at a 3" collector. Then it's 3" all the way back (through the X-pipe) to the catbacks. Most catbacks are 2 1/2" dia.

It's probably like the LG headers where the smaller primary pipe headers after the 3" collector have a reducer to to make it 2-1/2" through the xpipe. I'm assuming it's sold as a set like the LG series with the headers and x-pipe already basically together. I think the theory is there is no benefit to having a full 3" xpipe/catback with the smaller 1-3/4" primaries and may actually hurt performance slightly. You can get the bigger opening cat but you need the 3" midpipe, which probably doesn't come with the 1-3/4" headers.
