Any help on this matter would be appreciated.

Just to get your current system straight, do you have a std 2.5" catted downpipe leading onto the std 2.5" 2nd cat and then a 3" system to the back?
If so then it is pretty pointless in fitting a 3" sports cat to go down to 2.5" std cat and then back out to 3".
Why keep the 2nd std cat? - it'll just bring down the rest of the system.
