any body running 2" charge piping?
 

most people run 2 1/4 and if people say 2 1/2 is kind of big and that's only 1/4 bigger than 2 1/4, than 2" should be fine right? it just seems really small :-\

Re:any body running 2" charge piping?
 

i run 2" charge pipes and i run 12psi all day i did have 2 1/4 before on the same setup and it seems like 2" actually makes boost faster dunno maybe its just me

Re:any body running 2" charge piping?
 

cool, that's what i'm planning on running, and that's what i was thinking because it's less volume to fill, it just seems small and looks kind of funny :-\

Re:any body running 2" charge piping?
 

2 inch is perfect for a d series, 2.25 is over kill and it takes longer too see the boost. With that said my charge pipes are 2.25. :-\

Re:any body running 2" charge piping?
 

ha! i piss on d series....... ;)

Re:any body running 2" charge piping?
 

well your not turbo yet, soooo.....d-series turbo's piss on you :P my piping is 2" and then goes to like 2.5" right before the throttle body and i still get decent spool on my T3. no problems here...

Re:any body running 2" charge piping?
 

no, i mean i seriously pissed on a a6 before, i should have taken a pic :P but yeah, i went ahead and ordered the two inch from jc whitney, i really would have liked to get them from custom coach, but the ones from jc whitney have more straight on them and are a hair cheaper :-\ as far as not being turbo, i will be on saturday ;D

Re:any body running 2" charge piping?
 

good! cuz we all want to see pics and a video of you boosting and blowing off!

Re:any body running 2" charge piping?
 

well, i'm a little interested to see how my 8 dollar bosch bov is going to sound also :P

Re:any body running 2" charge piping?
 

lol yeah fill me in on how that thing sounds, i can get plenty of em if they work well...

Re:any body running 2" charge piping?
 

i know your being money efficient but you have a very nice and clean si, dont mees it up by putting too many cheap ass parts. i want your car to look clean inside the motor also. hey, but whatever works for now...i know you will eventually get tired of it anyways...

Re:any body running 2" charge piping?
 

yeah, the only cheap parts i'm using is the bov and an fmu, the fuel management will be the first thing i upgrade, then the bov ;) i just couldn't wait any longer for boost. besides, the big .48/.50 t3/t4 will make up for the 8 dollar bov ;D

Re:any body running 2" charge piping?
 

i run 2" from turbo to fmic and 2" from fmic to my 2.5" leftover cai as chargepipe to tb. works just fine. 11psi by 3k-3.5k all the way to 7.2k fuel cutoff. i could have gotten slightly quicker spool by using 2" all the way to the tb, but i was too lazy to cut the extra pipe and it just meant that i might fully spool 2-3 hundred rpm earlier...not much different and already have traction issues now.
