I have 2.5 inch tubing and a 2.5 inch cone air filter left over from another project. If I use tubing that is 2.5 inches in diameter, will that be just as or more efficient as the stock intake system? I am used to building 3 and 3.5 inch set-ups....and I just want to be sure that I will not be reducing the air needs of the motor.

Thanks for any advice!!
anything that allows more air in is better for it.
