I'm running a 2.5" exhaust NA with a homemade muffler and a thrush welded muffler and it's far to loud for my liking. The drone takes forever to leave my head.......

2.5" straight with a vnt-15 sounded nice and wasn't at all to loud.

If I was redoing my exhaust for NA I wouldn't go bigger than 2".
'82 Rabbit, I put on a euro vnt-15, 2.25" DP, 2.5" exhaust, the result.....it whistled.

I removed the turbo, made a toilet bowl 2.5" DP, the result....it was deafening. Now it has a homemade muffler up front and a thrush in the rear, the result.....less loud.

86 GTI - 4 Door, Med Twilight Gray, Tow Machine..
86 Audi Coupe GT - Tornado Red, All Stock.. WRECKED.

Turbo: exhaust gasses go into the turbocharger and spin it, witchcraft happens and you go faster.
