The up pipe in green is a 3". A stock size is also available from the same vendor. I don't think there is much of a gain over the 2 1\2", Especially since there are adapters involved. It look good though.
The blue MAF pipe is 4", but that is because my turbo has a 4" inlet. Yours may vary, and again a stock size is available. I also run a Big Mouth Air filter.

All these parts are available from Mark at TR Custom Parts 84-87 Turbo Regals, 94-6 Impala SS, 93-up F Body Cars, Olds G-Body Cars, Late Model Corvettes, S-10 Blazers
You will be pleased with his service and goods. Just ask Mark what he suggests for your application. I highly recommend him.

Did you have any problems with the Up pipe clearing the 4" MAF pipe?

It's close, but no problem. Had to use a Angle Boss for the IAC to get more clearance for the MAF pipe.
