I'm pretty sure the piping is 3.5", that's what both of mine have been so far. If u want to be totally sure wait til you get it to buy the K&N.

or better yet, just use your stock cai and take off the silencer and get a square k&n filter! there the same thing mate. Just doesnt look as spiffy under your hood.
