Default intercooler piping size for b16 t3 60 trim

im having a dilema with what pipe diameter im going to go with so i need some of your oppinions...please no "do a seach" becuase i have already looked and its all classifieds. setup is a b16a with a garett t3 60 trim turbo boost 8psi daily. anyways, its going to be 2" from the turbo to the intercooler no doubt. and then i was thinking 2.25 from the intercooler half way to the throttle body and then 2.5" from the second half right after the bov . i could just go to a local muffler place and get them to flare the 2.25 pipe to a 2.5" pipe. does that sound ok? or what are all your oppinions. i was also thinking just 2.5" piping from the intercooler back that way my spool would not be as fast because i ahve a whole 8200 redline to satisfy. what do you all think?

do a search! or at least check out the FAQ...lotta good info in there. I think you should do 2" turbo to IC inlet, then 2.25" from IC outlet to TB.

thats what i was looking for. people locally are telling me 2.5 inch from the ic back because with such a high rpm motor you still want to make power up high and you will want more lag so you will have more traction
