Is your 2" drain flowing vertically straight down towards your sump or will there be any bends/horizontal flow? Sorry need to know more specific details on your drain design to determine how much GPH it's draining.

One two inch pipe for into sump drain would be plenty and pump around 2000gph 1- 1 1/2 inch pipe for out flow from sump.

Ya I was gonna suggest something around 2000gph pump too but if I'm reading the stickies PVC flow chart correctly if the OP is draining horizontally the gph flow is much less then flowing vertically.
