I'm not doubting the performance gains, I'm just curious about the tech behind them.

The flow characteristics with 3" flow will be much more different than 2.5" throughout. I've heard of some turbo Volvo race cars that had 4" downpipes which continually taper down to 2.5" making about 30% more power than 3" throughout. Gains on a stock car were around 30whp. Tuned, you'll see around 60whp bump with a downpipe map.
