Exhaust is an outgoing process. What do you mean by inlet

The inlet is the smaller end that is connected to the pipe of the car.

He wants to know diameter, but where? Let me help you. No where in your 2.5 exhaust system is there 3 inch piping.

He has it available in a Inlet Diameter of 2.5in or 3in. I dont know which one to get. That is my question. Hope that clears everything up.

your best bet is to go measure it urself .......but i think 2.5'' would be your best bet. It might even be slightly bigger than stock on the 2.5L but u can weld it on or whatever

You don't want 3". You'll end up losing power. Larger diameter like 3" is typically used on forced induction.

Well this is a muffler. So you will need to buy 2 of these and weld in new piping from the axle back to these mufflers. Buy the 2.5" inlets, they will fit.
