2.5" Head and DP or 3"?

This is something that I just can't seem to decide on.

I'm gonna be running a 2.6" pulley, 60's, ported blower, ls4 tb, meth and a few other little things to add hp. I currently have a 3" catback but I'm wondering what size dp and header I should run.

I don't want to lose low end tq from a 3" combo but I don't want to choke out up top if the 2.5" is too small. Anyone have any advice on this subject? I'm already in the process of my build and sending off the blower to be ported soon so any words of advice would be great guys!

3" custom with magnaflow components. I thought that having a 2.5" header and dp combo would cure the low end tq loss but with that dyno graph, I'm sold on full 3"
