I have a couple spectre short ram intake tubes (3" diameter) that I am thinking about hooking together to make a cold air intake(I need a 90 deg elbow). I would then need to reduce to 2.5" at the intake manifold.
I got them pretty cheap, will be close to price of an bay intake for an ST once I get a filter. Is this okay, or is it better to be same size all the way? Thanks! |

if it helps any, I tried to stick a 2.5" coupler on the throttle body and it was slightly too big, and I also stuck a 2.25" coupler on there and it was a really tight fit. so it's somewhere inbetween but either could work
