You can usually tell if the people know what they are talking about or if they just work there for a job. What was the guy like? Did he seem knowlegable or was he clueless? I dont see why it wouldnt work but im not to experianced

A 3" pipe will be a tight fit where it goes over the rear axle, but it Can be done. GM "solved" the problem on the V8 cars by making the pipe smaller where it goes over the rear axle, and in the process left an opening for aftermarket people to start making cat back systems.The Meineki people probably did not want to deal with the possibility of the tail pipe and the rear axle hitting each other and having you complain later.

I can't comprehend your "need" for A 3inch exhaust in the first place, unless you have already done the 3400 hybrid swap, The 3.4 doesn't have adequate air intake to utilize a 3 inch exhaust. Seems Like a waste of money, save the 250 and put it towards a 3400 top end.
