ive heard a couple of 3s guys complaining about lag with 2.25. but im not sure how the t3 compares to the ct26. i think the t3 is slightly bigger and i know it spools faster so i dunno. i think if you ever wanna upgrade defintly go big.

i wouldnt use 2" piping, the MR2oc guys advise against it..they know theyre stuff...as far as the intercooler size...thats more a matter of what your goals are...but for under like 275-300hp i think your fine, if not a little bit on the big side

You need the piping to be the same diameter as your throttle body from the outlet of the intercooler. From the turbo, it has to be the same size as the turbo outlet and match up to the IC inlet.
