Intercooler outlet size?

Hey Guys, I'm going to start some long over due maintenance on my truck and one item on the list is new intercooler boots. I was able to pop off the inlet side and measure it and it was the 3" size. As is common in Oregon it started to rain pretty good and I wasn't able to measure the outlet side. Would the outlet be the same size as the inlet? My truck is an 02 if that matters.

Look into Riffraff diesel they had a top notch quality boot set design for your truck.

Yep, that's what I'm getting. Just want to get the right size, any input on that? sounds like you might have switched yours out?

The CAC pipes are all 3". You either have a 3" or a 3.25" pipe on the intercooler itself. The easiest way to tell is to pull the lower boot off all the way and see if it's bigger on one side than the other. Mine was a 3.25" FWIW.
