Default Piping and BOV questions.

alright, well i think im going to get a blitz dual drive bov from a silvia. it is coming mounted on a 2" pipe. should i go with all 2" piping or take the bov and flange off the piping and put it on the 2 1/4" jc whitney piping? im also looking at an ic and its oulets are 2 1/4". thoughts?

also, does home depot sell silicon couplers and t clamps that will work? if not who does?

I heard the home depot stuff doesn't withstand that much pressure though. A guy DJDXM kept blowing holes in his at 10psi. He told me that he bought 2", 2.25", and 2.5" heavy duty radiator hose from NAPA and it holds up. I bought some to use for my setup, and the damn thing was rated at like 52psi! And it's not that costly either. For 1ft of 2" and 1ft of 2.5" was like $30 after tax. Just a suggestion.
