Re: turbo piping

2.5 is just fine, 3 if you really think you need it, 2.25 if you dont care

Re: turbo piping

go woth the same size as you turbo outlet for the pipe entering the intercooler, and a half inch size larger when leaving the cooler, just a rule of thumb

What if the IC outlet to the IM is 2" aswell? should you still step to 2.5?

Re: turbo piping

Not sure, But I did 2 inch from compressor to intercooler. My end tanks on the intercooler are 2.5 so I just got reducers then I ran 2.25 out the other side of the intercooler to the TB
