2" so 50mm, 51mm will be a squeeze but better than a wizards sleeve  :grin:

sorry to break it to you but the k03s outlet is 45mm :undecided:. So if your running 2.5" pipe work you need 45mm-63mm reduce

k03 outlet

k04 outlet

so when u say 45mm is this the size without the bead so the silicone pipe is tight down on shaft and has to stretch over the bead??
also i would think that welding the k03 outlet would further restrict the boosted air so is there not another way to make this an 'OEM' fit?

and if i have to do it the way you said then it is a good job i found this in a garage!!
