I've got my muffler picked out but not the pipe size...

Is a Borla Turbo muffler and 2.5" pipes sound a lot different than Borla Turbo muffler and 2.25" pipes on a OHV V6?

I can't decide if I should go with 2.25" pipes or 2.50". I want to avoid a ricer sound at all costs. I want it to be "silent but deadly", a deep mellow tone.
 






2.25" pipe is pleanty for the 4.0L engine. Anything larger and you will be wasting your money.
 






...But is 2.25" plenty for a bored & stroked 4.0 with a torquey cam?

All right, 2.25" it is then...I just want to avoid the buzz saw ricey sound at all costs. I think the 4.0 is big enough to avoid that plague, but I want to be sure.
