There are two 3" straight pieces and two 4" x 3" angled pieces.

Thanks for replying.

I'm talking about the diameter though. I'm upgrading my heap from 2 1/2" to 3" and am sorting out the turbo to intercooler tubing adapter ( the 90 degree piece coming off the turbo).

So the '94 up has 3" tubing, or are you saying it has two different size tubes (3" and 4")?

That may very well be what infidel was talking about.

Again, in my case, I'm upgrading from the then OEM 2.5" to 3".

I've got a line on a used turbo charger compressors outlet pipe from a '98 (the 90* elbow that just comes of the compressor).


Thanks folks.
