Is a 2.7 HP variable speed pump enough for a 8-jet in-ground spa (2"pipes)

Adding spa to a pool, circulating mode and spa mode. Gas heater. Do you think a 2.7 HP variable speed pump (Intellipro 011018) enough for a 8-jet in-ground spa. I will use Omni logic automation to control the variable speed pump. I have a 2" pipes, and spa will be on a corner of the pool, about 55 feet from the pump (see pic below, heater and spa still to be added).

2" pipe will not be sufficient. That will put the velocity much too high. For 8 jets, I would use nothing less than 3" pipe for both suction and return.

What type of jets do you plan on using and what is the manufacture's recommended flow rate?

Will that small filter be inline too? If so, it will likely need a bypass.
