Default dsm bov piping

Alright, so the intercooler pipe that i have is 2.5" and was wondering if it would be a problem if i cut the pipe and clamped the dsm pipe in between the 2.5" pipe. I don't have a welder and don't want to weld on a flange. Will it be a problem for the air to travel down a 2.5" pipe into a 2" pipe and then out to the 2.5" pipe before the throttle body?

It doesnt sound too bad.. i dunno.. i just finish my first setup.. i have 2.5 pipe then like 2" ghetto *** "spa" pipe that goes into my lil side mount ic thats in the place of my old a/c radiator thing.... so it looks stock.. then i have a like hella small like 1.5" pipe that perfectly matches the cold side of the turbo.. SOunds ghetto but ya today we just got our pipe bender so i will finish it later.. but it feels like it spools great.... but i also am just happy im boosted...

Why not order a flange from BMC etc and just JB weld it to a small piece of pipe and then JB weld it to the charge pipe.JB weld works great for this type of thing.
