Stock exhaust diameter?

96 F150- 351- What size is the stock piping?

I was planning on putting on a cherry bomb turbo later this week, but I left for school and forgot to measure the pipe.

I looks to be about 2.5".

Thanks guys.

I'm thinking that it is 2.5 inch. I agree about upsizing the single to 3 inch. If you run duals out of the muffler then 2.25 or 2.5 is fine. If you want it to be deeper sounding run 2.5. Then of course your choice of tips 3, 3.5, 4 inch. I think you'd be happier with a Cherry Bomb Extreme or Pro. The turbo is going to be really quiet especially if you still have both cats.
