Default Flex Pipe replacement. Go bigger or get oem size?

My flex pipe needs to be replaced so i am going to cut the old out and weld a new one in. My question is should I get a larger/longer flex pipe? Any pros or cons? I have read that stock is more restrictive to the motor. Any ideas?

Bigger isn't really going to do anything. The manifold and downpipe is the same.
