Maybe, but I bet it won't be easy.

Well stephen if I get 3" to 3" elbow how can I "Beef" up the Outlet side to meet the 3" silicone coupling. ?? its only really another .25 of an inch

Another option I was thinking was going with that intake piping you were saying you used from a 300ZX, (ebay item ?? i lost the link maybe you have the link still ?) and getting away from the 90 degree bend

can you explain what you're trying to do? the outlet on the blower is 2.75 and you want to know if this 3" will work?

Im trying to order material for my 3" charge pipe. The First link i posted up was 2.5" witch would go onto the 2.75" Oulet...

Then I wanna know what I need to do to the 2.75" outlet to make it OK for the 3" coupling

a 2.5 coupler to a 2.75 outlet..that would be a realllll tight fit..no?

well i answered your question in the WTB thread. basically you want to use a sleeve in the 3" coupler to get it down to 2.75". try to use silicone...they tend to stay a little "sticky" so they don't pop off.

You can use boost hose to build up the diameter to 3". You should be able to find 2.75" dia boost hose pretty easily. Most boost hose is nominally 1/8" thick, so there you are at 3".

so you really think that it will hold it on with 14 psi of boost getting backed up and released?

I have blown hoses off a couple of times since installing the 2.87" pulley, but never that particular one. It's always the ones on the polished aluminum pipes up front. Not enough friction.

have you tried spraying hair spray on the pipes that join into the couplers?
