Thanks Ariel, I'll get in touch with Sam@GTM.
Do you recall the diameter of the piping? I need to know if I need a reducer for the coupler (silicon)

The piping from gtm is 2.5". You will need an a coupler adapter for the inlet since it is 3".
In my case, i used a 3" extender. I used a refular coupler in between the coupler and the inlet. But, for the extwnder and piping, i used a coupler adapter 3"-2.5"

100% sure. The piping is installed in my car already and there was no clearance issues with the crash bar. It fits right in between the headlight and crash bar.

Thanks Ariel!!
So just to confirm, the inlet piping from the HKS SC is 3" and the GTM piping is 2.5"
So i will need a 3" to 2.5" reducer coupler?

The supercharger intake diameter is 3" or 2.5"?

If you swap the blower pulley between 6psi-10psi, you'll only need the proper belts. Can you re-phrase the post about the idler pulley? I might be missing something.
