My old system when i had the old 16g on consisted of all 2 1/2" upper i/c piping all the way to the tb elbow. My lower i/c piping from the turbo to the inlet of the FMIC was 2 1/4".

The outlet on a PTE 50trim compressor housing is like 2 or 2 1/4"(can't remember). Does anyone foresee a problem with using this 2 1/4" piping for the lower i/c piping? I just don't know if i need to convert to 2 1/2" for the lower. If the outlet on the turbo is only like 2 1/4", why would i want 2 1/2" Your system is only as good as the smallest point "bottleneck".

Thanks.
