Synolimit’s setup is consistently 63mm (2.5 inches) which is as large as one can go. A 3-inch intake will not supply any more air than a 2.75 inch because it’s not being asked too (in a NA engine). The total vacuum demand starts in the manifold and whatever volume it can demand is all you need until you start forcing air.

This makes sense to me but It seems there is quite a divide by forum members as to whether this is the case.
I know I have gotten a few responses from some generous members on here regarding this. But I am hoping some others might chime in.
If some of you guys could start your intake build again from the beginning today. What pieces what would you go with ?
