depends on your turbo setup.

if you have the stock k03 turbo then use 2.25

on your stock turbo you would lose boost if you went 2.5, 2.25 will maintain the boost as well as have added performance.

go to goapr.com and giacusa.com for dealers close to you (for chip)

Larger diameter tubing wont cause you to loose boost. May cauase an imperceptible increase in turbo lag, but the pressure at the engine will not decrease.

Plus the bigger the intercooler/piping, the harder it will be to fit behind the bumper.
