Expect slower spool up, it's going to take longer for T25 to fill all that up. 2.75" is huge.

^^^ Yeah, what he said. ^^^

I am currently running 2.5" and I wouldnt dream of running anything bigger, ever. With a T25, you are going to not want to go any bigger than 2.25". You can run a FMIC wiht a T25 (I did it when I had that turbo), but dont expect any crazy gains from it. The T25 is just not a good performer and it doesnt respond to upgrades like other/larger turbos do.

so if i get smaller pipping for my FMIC will it work just fine with my T25

if you have a FMIC already why not just get a bigger turbo? FMIC is pretty pointless with the T25..as it will only serve to increase the time it takes for the turbo to spool, I would just upgrade the turbo.

Yeah, you should be OK with it with smaller diameter piping.... Whats the dimensions of the core? Is it bar & plate or tube & fin?

You are going to want to buy some silicon couplers for the inlet and outlet to reduce that 2.75" to a 2.25". Then you will need to custom fab. some 2.25" piping.

Then slap that puppy on and enjoy a cooler air charge.
