Hey guys, I am just finishing putting my 2nd SR in my car and while i was at it i upgraded to a GT2871R turbo (3" intake). The stock pipe doesn’t work and i can’t find anything else to work. Just wondering what others have used?? thanks, Fitzy ---

get a small peice of 2.5" pipe, a cupler for 3" to 2.5" and 2 clamps one that fits 3" and one that fits 2.5". clamp the coupler on the turbo inlet push the small pipe in and clamp it and then put on your factory inlet pipe. ---

Fitzy… if you have a Z32 mafs then it is 3" as well… so you need 3" piping and a pair of 3" couplers. i have all that junk… all used though, not shiny brand new awesome wicked im super leet or anything, but it will do fine. btw… silicone couplers arent cheap… i just spend $55 on a reducing elbow… no name brand either. ---

I took my ps pump out for now. It not hard to weld up your own inlet pipe your self. I might do mine this weekend, depending if I have the time or not. ---
