Default I/C pipe size

What size intercooler piping are most of you using? Is there a recommened size for them (I'm thinking the bigger the better; to an extent). Thanks in advance.

wouldn't it take longer to build up boost w/ a 3". The piping that came with my greddy ic kit was about 2" from turbo to ic and 2.25" from ic to TB.
