2"x50 feet will leave you some over if you need to do it again.

I know that 10m x 50mm was only enough to do about 2/3 of my 3 inch downpipe.

Hope that helps

DEI wrap from Nimbus Motorsport has a stiching to show the correct overlap.
You will need one roll 2"x50 feet for a 3" open neck D/P with some left over. Apply damp but not wet. Plenty tie wires. Goodridge tie wire or similar, quite thick wire if there is a choice and a tie tool will speed up the job if you can beg, steal or borrow.....
