running 3 inch pipes and a cooler the size of a pencil case?
your either not going to be running much power and the 3 inch is over kill or your running alot of power to need 3 inch and in which case the extra heat generated by the mass increase in boost to fill them pipes will soon over welm and heat soak a cooler that size trust me!

for the record folks, offering to sell someone something using a pic from ebay, and quite probably buying the item in the pic from ebay to sell onto someone on here at a fisting of a rate isnt necessarily on.

I'm watching you ;)

for starters im using a gsi rad centralised and my 2 inch pipes touch both the rad and chassis so 3 inch will be squashed i would imagine so you would be aswell with 2inch as what you would squashed 3 inch not to mention the potential for chafing

secondly i was running 7psi boost at pvs ok i may have alot of internal mods but most of them are fail safes and strengthening i.e steel rods ectto insure that when i do get sorted and raise the boost levels it will last . but im only running an ebay job for the time beeing and the results speak for them self realy have a look at the pics of mine and ask on here how i got on im sure mike can tell you

if you want any more advice on anything specific ect pm me mate im always pleased to help
