Default Turbo piping size??

I just got my turbo in, its a T76 .81 T4. I was wanting to know what would be the best I.D piping to run on the hot side (down pipe), from the turbo to the back of the truck its 12' long, for 700fwhp. The I.D. on the turbo hot side is like 2-3/4".
Thanks.

whatever the outlet side it of the turbo. But the length and how many bends in it will determine how it flows. If its rather long and has a few bends i'd step it up. The T70 on my friends car has a 3" outles. the DP is 3" but since its going to the back of the car with a few bends it will be stepped up to 3.5".

Given 3.0" is the handiest to source parts/bends etc for...just use it.
