I think I may try an experiment and see what happens. I'm planning on using two 90 degree mandrel bent 2.75 pipes, one at the SC outlet and one at the BOV coupler to the intercooler and couple them together with a short piece of straight 2.75. I'm not expecting much but I'm concerned about the reduction in pipe diameter to 2.5 inch for that section. At the low boost we are running compared to some of the turbos it probably won't make much difference, but then again you don't know until you try. My thought is to have as smooth of a transition as possible from the SC to the IC.
