IIRC my measurements on the inner pipe after it necks down is around 2"
2.5 would be a difference, the question is.. are you willing to sacrifice the low end for the high end? Being SC'd and running a small pulley, I went to 3" and noticed low end loss. BUT...I had more than enough low end to light them after the fact.
Merely know that there will be a noted difference.

These motors are choked at higher RPM'*. They need all the flow they can get. A 2.5 would be a marginal loss in low-end, prolly nothing terribly noticable. Even on GP'* which have an even more restrictive DP, there are more gains than losses when going to a larger DP. A friend of mine switched to a 2.5" on his GP GT and had great results. Addtionally, the gain in flow will help reduce any KR (yea, the N/A motor can still get KR).

the biggest thing I am looking for is the midrange. I feel that the low end is good enough for me. If I can get a smooth pull that is Ideally what I would like. It is not super important to smoke the tires to me. If I can get a setup where the mid is better and if the I open it up I should see the better mileage here in the mountains. Better flow better mileage right
