boost would come on slightly later because you have to fill more volume inside the piping, but if you dont get larger than a 2" you're going to be restricted if you plan to make more power....what is your setup?

why would you change the IC piping in the first place? if you already have 2.5" i would just leave it. if spool time is what you are woried about, i dont think it would make that much of a difference. what IC and turbo are you using?
