Just a hint, if you plan to use homedepot transitions couplers to your intercooler (generally inlet-outlet of 2.5" or 3.0"), just make sure that you can get your hand on 2.25" to something transitions at local hardware.

If you use bling silicone transition however, you'll be able to buy 2.25" to 2.5" or 3.0" transitions.

Good luck

the small piping=less pipe to fill with boost by turbo=less turbo lag
