Personally I would run 2 1/2 in piping. Just get a down sizing adapter. Can you get more pictures with a direct view, top view, sides, and one with the hood open to see down?

Why wouldn't you go with the 3" piping?

I would also run 2 1/2" piping. Almost nobody needs 3" IC piping. To run your piping flip the driver side around the radiator support side and straight to your turbo. Take the passanger around the core there and up to the TB. Hope that helps, Keith.

i have that same intercoler. Great craftsmanship! I got reducers that went from 3-2.5". Running 3" pipes would be a pain to run on the drivers side with that intercooler. Its hard enough with my 2.5" pipes. Good luck with the install and save yourself headaches and go for 2.5" piping.

can you show me pics of how you did the 2.5" piping? I bought a bunch of 3" piping and wanted to go with that.. but if it is going to be too much of a pain to fabricate I might just do 2.5"....

would there be any upside to be running 2.5" hotside and 3" coldside?

No colder air is denser so flipping that would be better.
