Apexi WS 2? or other?

I know the which exhaust topic has been beaten to death but I'm looking for some answers more then which exhaust to buy.

More like which setup?

So I'm leaning towards a turbo setup soon. I've researched all of that good stuff and found most of the answers on that front. When it comes to exhaust things are a bit laking I found.

So what is really ideal?

I have a 1998 Si with a D16Y8 with 67,000 original kilometers.

I'd like to run something pretty mild around the 225 WHP mark.

So I will be going with a high flow cat obviously. The turbo set up will most likely be a 2.5" type. So after the cat, which size should I run?

My question is after the cat should I go to a 3" exhaust (haven't found a company that makes one), should I get a 2.5" setup( what's good in this size). I know pretty much everything I read leads towards the Apexi WS 2 exhaust. I looked it up and it seems nice. But, is a 60mm (2.375") diameter going to flow well enough for the turbo setup?

Any advice on specific comanies and exhaust names would be great. What are you guys running on your turbo setups? What sort of numbers at the wheel are you getting?

Thanks in advance

Sorry to the people who think this is just a what should I buy. I'm looking for knowledge aswell. People who have done this and would like to share what they did.
