What size IC pipe?

OK, I'm getting ready to buy all the U-bends for my IC pipeing. And I need to know if it will hurt power/flow if I just use the same pipeing as the compressor outlet/the IC inlet/outlet. Which is 2". Would it be better to use 2.25/2.5" rather than the 2"?

I'm thinking it won't matter since it has to go that small anyways, and that it will also minumize pressure drop/lag?

Anyways, does anyone know what the ideal IC pipeing for a TO4 is?


Thanks, Cory

Im running 2.5 in but in your case, there would be no reason to go bigger than 2 in.

The IC is a stock MKIII turbo supra's IC. I may go with a set of 300Z SMIC's, but I need to find out their size.

I would use a 740 Volvo IC, but it is going to be way to much work, or at least more than I want to try to do. Because there is a Mercury Sable radiator being cramed into the same space. So room is tight
