Default question on intercooler piping

i have access to some 3.25 inch couplers and piping to match that. would that be too big for intercooler piping? This piping and couplers that i have access to is made for turbocharging. let me know what you think. Thanks

Throttle response will be horrible with 3.25. (Thats alot of pipe to pressurize)

I've seen 250 made on 2" pretty easily.
