intercooler question

what size is the stock intercool?

i just bought a intercooler kit (ets kit) but its a 3" kit, i'm on the stock turbo for now but plan on going to a red in the near future. can someone please tell me if the 3" it going to be too small?! should i have went with the 3.5" instead?? i bought the 3" thinking it was going to be less of a psi drop but now idk

can someone give me a little insight on this matter please!

It won't be a huge handicap, but its not ideal.
