The meter outlet at the street has a 3/4 check valve.
If i am connecting 1 inch pipe to the check or back flow valve, what are the effects on flow and pressure ?

Putting in 1” will reduce pressure losses especially important with long distances from the meter to the house static pressure will not be affected . In my state 3/4 is the minimum size and 1” is recommended up to the water heater split if there is no pressure reducing valve. if You want other information, you could ask it by editing the question.
