3" inch would be greatly increased flow and faster turbo spool-up.

Default Unless you have stage 3, NO!

Even with your boost controller, you probably aren't making much over 200hp. With a pipe that wide, you'd have a lot of exhaust sitting in the pipe (a little 4 cylinder doesn't push much exhaust). Since the exhaust would be moving slower, it would have more time to cool down, get denser, and add backpressure!

Get a tuned 2.25-2.5" pipe from APR or Borla or something.
