    2-1 collector?

    so im ordering a kit from columbia river mandrel bends to fab up my own exhaust, BUT i am 5 hours away from my car so i can't measure anything. I want to order a 2-1 collector for the OEM m50 midpipes, but i dont know what size diameter the pipes are. i am going with 3" piping, so i need to know if i need a 2.25"-3" collector/ 2.5"-3" collector etc, etc,

    can anyone help me out on this? thanks

        it's probably closer to 2" on the secondaries. but you really need to measure..
