Default Stainless Works Off road Pipe Install

I have the 3 in ORP and I wonder if anyone has it connected to the 2 1/2 in standard Cat back system.
It seems like a bottle neck if you just bolt it up .
3 in flange to a 2 1/2 flange or does Stainless have a tapered piece to tie the different pipes together ?

I have the SW center section. They have a 3" flange that clamps on the back of the xpipe that mates to the catbacks. It works fine. No bottleneck, especially if you use a free flowing exhaust. If you want a 3" exhaust SW has a 3" exhaust. I think Mufflex also makes a 3" exhaust for the C5. :cool:
