Just use a silicone joiner from the elbow to the throttlebody. Can mix and match whatever diameters you need then to suit whatever engine you end up running. Only a few quid for the silicone

Someone earlier on said that, that decomp is a good one. Sexoturbs you thought any more about selling your intake pipe as want abit cheaper one if can. Will the intercooler be big enough? I see that alot of boosted owners have that same sort of intercooler size wise, etc but ben vts said his over heats abit.

if i was you id buy the 2.25" boost pipe kit as the vtr tb is 2.25 and the intercooler ports are 2.25 so itl save you buying reducers etcs and basically stop you messing about with diff diameters on just about every joint, keeps things simple and stops your boost flow being restricted

Cool. I like the intercooler ive seen on ebay for £110 but would like something abit cheaper at first. As thinking of finding a vts engine but then thats a few hundred pound that could go on turbo build. But i have got the rad and fans on, Got the ecu would just need unlocking, top mount.
