i ran into a problem with the 2.5in couplers....it wouldnt go around the turbo inlet.....the solution was to let it sit under hot running water for 5 mins to stretch out the coupler.

Well, yeah, 2.5" is the inner diameter. It has a thick lip and rim, so you need a larger one. I can't remember what size mine is, but it's larger than 2.5" and very snug. I don't have to heat it up, but I do have to work it on there.
