Obviously if you went with the 3" there would be less restriction for exhaust to escape. But there would be minimal gains if you got the 3" in comparision to the 2.25". IMO

you'll be fine with the 2.25 exhaust. But going to 3" and seeing mass amount of gains would require some "head-work", bigger turbo, 3" IC piping (going into intake), equal length tubular manifold.
