I have a 3" exhaust from the headers back to some 3" flowmasters with turndowns, I'm trying to
get some 3" tailpipes, but i came accross some new 2 1/2 ones. The question is would hurt/help the performance of the car to throw the tailpipes on. my setup is in my sig, and i'm also about to throw on my nitrous if it matters.

3" exhaust is overkill for your car so I would say "no" it won't hurt. You may even pick up a bit of torque

same result more torque and a quieter ride inside the car

are they true 2-1/2 or 2-1/2 pipes compression bent down to 2-1/4 in the bends??

Go with the 3 inch mandrel bent if you can find them because I know that you will always want more power Joe.

If they are true 2.5 mandrel bends then cool for now.

Nitrous loves good exhaust flow.
