Default restriction

I have a question for h/t.. Do you think there would be a restriction in airflow, if say your running a turbo with a 3" outlet, and your intercooler hotside is 2.5" then goes to 3" on the coldside going int the t/b..

if the turbo has a 3" outlet it should be running 3" charge piping, thats a pretty big turbo so the air flow is there, unless its an ebay pos with a huge housing and small wheel lol

if its a backdoor intercooler there shouldnt be any charge pipes, really just a small piece or even justa coupler from turbo to intercooler and tiny bit i dont think would make much of a difference, but i could be wrong. You could always open up the FMIC and weld on a 3" piece
