Default What is the diameter of the stock exhaust piping?

I tried searching for this, but couldn't find it.

Can anyone tell me the size of the stock exhuast piping for my 1995 SC400?

I'm looking for the diameter of each section. If anyone could help, I would really appreciate it. I would take the sections off myself, but the only way to get the bolts loose is to grind them off. I've tried soaking them in WD-40, running the car, and etc.... but they are really on there.

When we took off my exhaust, it was crush-bent 2" diameter.

Yea, at the smallest point it actually was less then 2".
I was not aware as such a thing as "press bent". I assumed there was only mandrel bent, and crush bent. The exhaust was certainly not mandrel bent.

I was wondering the same thing, it seems to me that the center section after the 3rd cat is a bit larger. Can anyone confirm?
