well whatcha think.. should I use 2.5 or 3" piping for my FMIC? have really been goin back and forth over this for months and really dont know what to do.. Think with 3" I would probably have better results but dont wanna slow down the airflow...
Opinions please --------------------  99 project version 3.0.. hello SEMA 2010 =) |

your probably right on that... I havent measured it
Wonder if I could run 2.5 down to the IC and then run it threw an expander right before the IC and then run 2.75 right up to my BOV and 3 after that to my TB... kind of a gradual increase of the amount of air per square inch. I know that with how my intercooler is set up I will not loose alot of air speed running threw it like a taller intercooler will... so If I lose a speeed on the air with the piping it will kinda balance out a little... Who knows I'll figure something out... Hell I just use a buncha straws taped together
