The welder used 2" piping for most of the IC piping. Connecting to the TB and such he stepped it up to 2.5", then used 3" for the charge piping.

I have a 3" DP then 3" all the way back including cat and muffler...am i going to see any strange boost issues with this setup?

Also the BOV is located closer to the TB then I normally see, any issues with this as well?

Guess I should have been a bit more precise in what I wanted...was hoping for 2.5" piping all around.

3" charge piping how much power are you shooting for?

3" charge piping seems a little big, but I don't think you will see any "strange boost issues" like spiking or anything.

dayum ***** 3" charge pipe, what fo?

for reals though, I agree with the rest of the guys, shouldn't be a problem.

phreakmang

because 3" is the size of the compressor and it fits the filter I have.

implies I wasn't being serious with my previous response, thought I had made it obvious but I guess not.

im looking to get some piping done does anyone have a guide to follow?

2" - 2.5" IC piping...then your charge piping whatever size..you can use reducers on it if you want.

Whatever size BOV flange welded onto your piping past the TB.

Or contact KTeller8, he can hook you up.

I think he meant the turbo intake piping is 3" not the actual charge piping to the TB

err my bad, wrong wording on my part.

but yes, he is correct.

I believe he said his IC piping is 2.0", but then it expands to 2.5" at the TB. The intake pipe for the compressor inlet is 3".

You shouldn't have any problems. Maybe it looks weird, that's all.

haha, oh I thought you meant the charge piping
