Question Go with 3" or 2.5"?

I have been looking at Exhausts for my 2000 4.6 F150 and have found 3" Duals for $214 and want to know if that would be good for it. Will that keep the torque up. I'm looking for more Torque then horsepower so I would like to know if a 3" will be better for torque or should I go with a 2.5" or something else. If you have any suggestions please tell. Thanks

You will loose low end torque and make more hp up top!

Heck, if your going with duals on a 4.6, about 2.25 is what you would want. Even 2.5 is a little big... Unless you have some crazy power adders or something like that.
