Rice Pipe

I just ordered the rice pipe that Hans has on his Bonnie from Velocityshop.com. It is a 3" 45 degree angle pipe. What size coupler do I need in order to mate it the intake on my 94 SSEi?. For pictures, Han'* post topic is "Best rice pipe ever" posted on Apr. 30, 2006.

So, the intakes are different on the 93 and 94?

92/93 Had the Gen 2 Supercharger and a smalller throttle body
94/95 Had the Gen 3 Supercharger with a significantly larger throttle body. I believe it'* 3.5 inches. Haven't measured mine recently.

OK, so best case senario is that I would need a 3" to 3.5 coupler to go from the pipe to the throttle body. Guess I can take the old tape measure and find out. Thanks for the fast replies.

i just took a set of calipers to mine the other day so i can order my reducer too... its a 3.5" TB on my 95... so if the gen 3 SC is the same then its a 3.5"
