Title: Intercooler pipe size?
Post by: tezer on March 03, 2015, 18:52:47 pm
Hi im bulding slowly my type-4 turbo engine!
it is going to be a 2 litre and now im planing how to rute the pipes
from turbo to intercooler and throttle body!i was planing on having 2.5 inch pipe
all the way,but i se that i will be diffecult when it cumes to that size whit my setup!
so i was thinking to go whit 2 inch pipe insted,but her is what im unsure about!
will 2 inch pipe be enough to make 350bhp?
i have read alot on internet but so manny diffrent menings about this

Here's another meaning  ;): yes 2" will be enough.

A lot of smaller frame turbo's have an 2" compressor exit and those turbo's are rated at 500hp and more...
