that size...

If your only modification is exhaust then 2.25... if you are planning on a few more mods then 2.5

if i get 2.5 what other mods would i think about getting? future mods right now only consist of t-lok, and 3.73 gears, maybe new headers down the road, and underdrive pulleys. already got tuner.

it means the inlet and outlet are offset not in the middle of the muffler, you need it that way so it will fit the right way under thre car
