How is 3in piping not all the rage yet? Sure its a tighter fit and costs a little more, but it has less pressure drop across the piping system. Larger pipe will make your turbo work less to make the same flow, it will just be at less psi.

Takes about .035 seconds to fill a 3in pipe to 15psi than 2in. Huge 8ft piping will come out to .28 seconds. You are not going to feel that.

For my g3 teg I used 2.5 on the hot side because the turbo outlet was 2. Cold side was 3in.

4 180's
2-3 straights
