Default Header, Exhuast, Gear Combo

I picked up a set of Watson 2" Headers this last fall.

My 92 has 1 3/4 Watsons and a 2.75 Borla Challenge Exhaust and 4:09 gear.

My 90 has a 2.5 Corsa stock gear.

So my question is would it be better to put the 2" on the 92 to compliment the 2.75" exhaust and 4:09? Or does it not matter.

Personally, I think 2" is too big for most ZR-1's period. Just had this conversation with Hammer. But if you 'Have' to use them, better use them in the car with some gear...Regardless of anything else, Exh., Weight etc...

I would put all the hi-power race stuff on the 90 get rid of that wimpy Corsa go with a full 3" man exhaust no rasonator, X-pipe, Dinomax mufflers and cut outs.
You won't need 4.10 gears in the 90 after it looses 700lbs.
