Can I just Buy 2.5" IC pipes? because I will upgrade my Turbo...Eventually But right now I have 3" pipe to Stock CT 26 and it's lagging, everyone says I should have 2.25" but that means another set is needed someday. So I just want to...NOT have to buy a bigger set when I upgrade my Turbo. Anybody Else run 2.5" with a stock CT26?

Also, I need to Buy an IC pipe kit...but I just Bought a Spearco Replica IC, so I was wondering Where to Find Aftermarket pipes for an IC that is setup like the stock IC (Inlet/Outlet on same side)

I've got 2.5" pipes on the Spearco Replica IC. I'm running 9psi with a 3" cat-back, a DDP is in the near future. Not too laggy, didn't notice much of a difference in lag from stock.

I just finished making my 2.5" pipes with the spearco replica ic. My car isn't running yet, so I can't say how they are. I'd buy the piping kit from DriftMotion, it comes with all the pipes and couplers needed.

i have 2.25" with a spearco replica and i didn't notice any problems or more lag, if anything it seemed to respond faster.

but you asked about 2.5 so that's just my $.02

i put a giant 12x24x4" IC = 2.5" pipes with the stock ct26 and i was getting considerable lag, although it did flow much better and made more power (at less psi)... now i got a bigger turbo tho ;)
