iight thanks man hey if you have a 2.5 inch valve and a 3.0 inch intake pipe do you have to get the same size? i was think you probably did but i didnt know for sure.....

Also i had another question i was lookin at the intakes on ebay and see they came with sum other stuff like ground wires, etc....whats all that bout ive never seen that?

no, a 2.5 inch would not work.

there's a good amount of snake oil on ebay. ground wires can help, but it would cost you $10 at home depot rather than the prices they are selling them for. don't believe the hype

wiat so 2.5 is the diameter of the by pass valve ? right? and it has to match up with the diameter of your cai tube??

unless you want to get an adapter to go back down to a 2.5" then get another one to go back up to 3"
