The rule of thumb is to use wut ever size outlet your turbo is. Ex: if your turbo had a 2.5" outlet, then you would use 2.5" piping. Anything bigger is suppose to result in more lag. But me personally, I decided to use 2.5" piping because of my FMIC. My turbo outlet is 2.25". With bigger charge piping, or bigger than your turbo outlet, you may get a bit more lag than if you ran the same size as the turbo outlet.

Hope this makes sense.........
