Stock is somewhere in the 2 to 2.5" size. 3" is always the recommended pipe size for a turbo car.
You may also want to look at pre-made cat-back exhausts. You can buy a muffler and have a shop weld pipe up and make a system - this will save money many times, but it's really up to the muffler shop if they do a good job. I've seen more crappy muffler shop exhausts than not myself, whereas a good premade cat-back is a simple bolt-on and will fit and look great.

What size inlet piping for the muffler would you reccmend to get, for the stock ehaust setup?
Should i match the inlet piping of the exhaust piping, or go with a 3" inlet for the muffler?

I recommend the Racing Beat twin tip.

listen to jimlab, he has more knowledge than many of us combined.
don't just buy a new muffler and have a shop weld it on, that's putting a band-aid on the problem, and these cars don't deal well with band-aids

I would like something sounding like the Tanabe Racing Medallion.
