Default quick coupler question

Hey guys I have a Drag turbo kit that I am installing on my 92 gsr hatch and I need to know what size of coupler to get on part of the ic piping. If you're looking at the car from the front I need to know what size coupler to get on the right side of the intercooler. I think that the pipe size on the left size is 2.5" but I think the right side is smaller. Sorry for the dumb post but I'm not able to get to my friend's house and measure the pipe until this weekend and want to order this coupler now. Thanks guys!!

if one side is smaller than the other side u just need a reducer. if not 99.9% of the time its a 2.5in coupler needed. i am pretty sure all of drags ic piping is 2.5in, and if you bought the, kit the right coupler should be in there.

Here's the thing. I bought this kit used and it's off of a type r so the bend on the left side (sitting in the car) needs to be modified a little bit so I was just going to cut the "U" bend and use a coupler to join the two ends so I need to know what size coupler to use to join the two ends together. thanks

Heres what you can do. Find out which side is biggest, (prolly 2.5in) then measure what size the smaller hose is with a tape measure. Then go to napa and find a 2.5in radiator hose and then clamp it down tight on the 2.25in. Thats what I did on my buddies setup and its holding just fine.

just go measure both ends and see what size they are. then u can go to atpturbo.com and get a reducer coupler or run the radiator hose like previously stated.
