When you start getting too larger piping you'll start losing velocity, because you are adding a huge amount of volume to your intake system, which could hurt throttle response, as well as causing a larger pressure drop. From what I have seen online even 2.5" piping is more than enough for this setup. As far as I know this blower is not offered with a 3" outlet and that is probably dictated by the max CFM. This head unit has a 800CFM max air flow which is about 575hp. That should be more than enough to meet the needs of any Cougar. I'd suggest running 2.5" piping all the way up to the MAF.
