Hey guys,
I have been thinking about doing a DIY style FMIC sometime in the near future. It seems like most of the piping kits are in the 2.5" alum tubing. But when I look at the pics of most of the branded kits, the piping looks like it might just be 2.0". Can anyone suggest whether 2 or 2.5" tubing would be best for no more than 10psi on stock internals motor??
It seems the 2.0" would offer less turbo lag for sure, since the volume to fill would be quite a bit smaller I think.
From my meager math skills it looks as if sizing up from 2.0 to 2.5 increasing the volume inside the piping by a whopping 56%.
what do you guys think??
