I.C. Hard piping???need input...

[tomsupra48]

My buddy just hooked me up with a nice intercooler and a ton of 3 O.D. intercooler hard piping. My question is 3 inch to big for a stock CT26?...im running 10 psi or on a cool day ive seen more, but im wondering if this pipe is going to lag my turbo real bad?? anyone runnin 3inch? any input...Thanks

lag i don't think so, you may see a PSI drop not with just the pipes but with the intercooler, that's all i can tell you.

meh it's a little big but youll be fine...you should still see a power increase over stock.....atleast if you ever upgrade your turbo you won't need pipes later on.

Rock it...sweet deal!

It's not optimum for that setup, 2.5" would have been great, but it's still better than stock!

Have fun trying to route 3" piping to the turbo.
