3" might be a little overkill for a NA car

2.25 in is the best, according to Mazdatrix. Go for 2.5 if you can't find the 2.25 though.

2.5" is what i had on my 12a i woudlnt go any larger.

Take out that power steering as well, also air pump and air control valve. Make sure you block off the hole for the ACV propperly.
