Intercooler pipe question.

I'm redoing my IC and have a question on pipe. On my last setup I used 2.5 from the turbo to IC and then to the 65mm TB The IC had 2.5 inlet and outlet and the pipe was about 6' long.

New setup is off the wall. I want to use 2.25 pipe (30" of pipe) going to the IC that has a 3" in and out, Then go with 3" to the 65mm TB. (32" of pipe)

My idea is that the turbo has a small opening that will keep air speed fast and when it gets to the 3" IC opening. Well after that I get lost in what happens! It seem like the air will move faster to the ic with a smaller pipe???

I just don't like the idea of going to a large pipe right after the turbo.

Any one have an idea on this??
