There is a proper size of exhaust pipe diameters to match an engine's displacement. Going too small will just limit your engine's power output.

But if you still want to go through with it, you might just want to install a restrictor plate instead of changing your pipes. The plate is just a flat metal insert with a hole of the exhaust pipe diameter you want. Just insert this between one of the bolted joints of your exhaust system.

thanks for the input sir.. my engine is 1rze 2.0L gas.. In other words, it will just lose power?

It will lose top end power.

The engine will just end up working harder to push the exhaust gasses through the smaller piping.

Smaller diameter does not equate to lesser fuel consumption or improved fuel economy.

It's like tying a person by his ankles while he tries to run.

For me the best way is still to change the way you drive.
