am running a bulit h23 with 90mm bore 9.7:1 comp and P&P head

t3/t04s/60-1 turbo ,4-1 style manifold

my stock TB is right around 3inchs

i really dont have a whp goal this time but i think 400whp should be easy

if a made 337whp with 87.5mm bore, drag 2 manifold ,t3/t04e 57 trim turbo ,2inch and 2.25 intercooler

and i think my 756cc injectors will hold up to 500whp on hondata

2.5 intercooler piping is fine, people have made 700 hp pn 2.5, just leave it alone.

Its not about what looks better, The 3" will hurt your air flow with the power that you are making. If im not mistaken motormatrix runs 2.5 piping, that should tell you something right there. Just stick or get the 2.5 and paint it or polish it.

I have 3 inch piping, The reason i have 3 inch piping is because of the 75mm throttle body. The diameter changes from 3 to 2.5 right before the Intercooelr anyway..
