Welcome-

Resignator... Rotaries (at least for the street) need quite a bit of muffling, so your "resignator" (resonator) might not be up to the task unless it is specifically designed for a street rotary. Rotaries are FEROCIOUSLY loud! Also, they generate far more HEAT than boingers, so "off-the-shelf" mufflers don't last long. There are several suppliers of rotary specific mufflers: Racing Beat (which I use) is one - their Power Pulse mufflers are specifically made to take the heat and sound nice. Others may jump on here with other recommendations-
Can't comment of the pipe diameter, but LOTS of experienced folks here with custom exhaust.
Also recommend you check out the ARCHIVES section - lots of exhaust info there-

Sounds like Stu has you covered. Good info.

Yeah, be careful about that rotary heat or your resignator may resignate on you unexpectedly!
