The exhaust isn't that large. Most NA 6's run a single 2.5" pipe.
Why not put the blower on and then change the exhaust if necesary but?

I agree with EFFalcon, that if you can, i'd upgrade the exhaust. Mine was struggling to get the air out, (certainly felt and sounded like it anyway) out of a twin 2 1/4 into a single 2.5". I just went twin 2.5" into a single 3" over the diff, because of clearance issues.

With forced induction its fairly hard to have an exhaust too large...
