the pipe size is not the main noise thing, just put a quite muffler on the end and he'll be fine.
side note: I love the salaras, there hot with duel pipes out the back, I would put a set of borla's on there, with 2.5 inch pipes there not that loud but they sound really good. -------------------- |

I wouldn't even bother with 2.5, I would stick with 2 and to keep it quiet creis said it best the pipe doesn't make the difference it's the muffler. Headers can make a difference in sound also.

well it depends what does he want, he cant just "want" a duel exhaust does he want the gains from it or the looks. if he wants more hp but keep it a sleeper then go for 2.5 with a set of quite mufflers. but yeah the header plays a big role, if you keep the stock headers you dont have to much to worry about, they will help restrict the flow, however if you put a set of nice headers and quite mufflers its gana get deep.
also is he getting a full duel exhaust or just duel pipes out of the facroty header (so it goes from 2 to 1 to 2) if its a full kit, and the 2 sides never meet then go with the smaller pipe because your only pushing out 3 chambers of smoke each, not 6.
