Interesting question… this is a “stock” block d15 Lxi counterpart sha kase side dipstick and p2c piston. But with p08 head and skunk2 intake and 2.5 seems to be better Years ago my hatch with a stock block ph15 nonvtec always ran 2.5in and power went from 121 to 127 to 129 and finally 133whp If I was to choose for you? Il choose 2.5in most kase saten porket sohc daw 2in na? Maybe that’s also why I always got 14-15km/liter consumption hmmm
Yep anything over 2in but unless they’ve shown on the dyno that a d16 works well with 2.25 vs a b16 with 2.5in? I’d still prefer 2.5 as I always ran 2.5 even in my sohc days made decent power and pulled a 15.4km/liter that’s over 38MPG
