3" seems way to big. Unless your running 1000whp it seems to big.. Maybe for cold side... Or maybe im wrong

I think mid 9's means ~950hp. In that case it might warrant the need for 3" pipes.

aluminum isn't better than stainless because it's lighter.

sure that's a definate plus, but when you're looking at the weight of charge piping it's not really that big of an issue.

you choose aluminum because it dissipates heat faster. stainless retains heat for a lot longer than mild steel even.
