anyone have one for sale PM me a price please, or where can i get this?

 

You can make it. 22" of Burns Stailess 3" tubing. (2) 2 1/2 long 3" diameter tubeing for merging....Pick a blow off valve to use and have the flange welded on. Get (1) 90 degree, (2) 45 degree, (3 or 4) sraight Silicone couplings with clamps. For the Silicone and Clamps use www.ATPturbo.com anywhere you go they're going to be pricey.

 

I have a 3" tube that can be used from the blower outlet to the charge pipe that will eliminate one 90 bend and one 45 degree bend. I bought it from Stephen Max but then decided to retire my car so I never used it. PM me if your interested as its just sitting on my bar at the house.

 

I just reclocked my blower (just undo the little aluminum allen bolts on S/C and turn - don't even have to remove blower) - then used a 48" straight pipe with a BOV flange welded on - a 2.75"-3" 90 degree bend, a 3" 45-degree bend - and a few straight 3" couplers and T-Clamps.

I thought it was going to be a PITA until I actually looked at it hard. It took me 15 minutes to assemble once I had those parts.

If you didn't notice - between your MAF and Throttle Body is already 3" - no need to replace that.

 

so, matty where are the 22 inches, and iansw, where are the 48 inches? shouldnt ure numbers be the same? im lost...

im already buying the piece blu is speaking of, so i dont need the elbows or anything.... if i do it your way matty, it would be blu's piece, from blower to where the regular charge pipe would be, then a coupler, then a 22 inch pipe, coupler, and another 2.5 inch long tube slightly angled, then another coupler, and another 2.5 inch tube slightly angled, then another coupler, and then the adapter that bolts to the maf, (which i already have, and its 3")....correct? or somewhere in there from the end of the new 3" charge pipe to the maf, i have to put in those 45 degree bends?

thanks guys

iansw, can i do it ure way without reclocking the blower?

 

me too!

 

CHARGE PIPE, NOT Y-PIPE

 

oh crap ehehe thats what happens when you try to sneak in and post atwork hahaa

I'll edit it

 

I have cefiro headlights and there's no way I'm going to fit a 3" anything between the blower outlet and the headlight - so I had to reclock - I can't say what other setups will do. Reclocking the blower is really really easy tho.

Oops - I meant 24" Pipe (bought from www.trubopiping.com) - that's for going across the engine bay - I had to buy no other piping - just couplers.

 

iansw, i have cefiros as well, i might have to go this route then if i cant fit that piece i bought from blu....thanks guys ill stay in touch for this stuff...

 

oh yeah, piping should be aluminum? stainless steel? wuts best?

this?

would this piping work for my charge pipe? want to know before i order...

 

Yes it would...SS is the best...I used 22" but 24" is just as good

-matt

 

thanks matt

 

OK, ALUMINUM PIPING OR STAINLESS STEEL.....

im hearing pros and cons with both...AL is more for intake piping than SS stuff is....something about heat transfer and things like that....are ure 3 inch charge pipes AL or SS, and im not heat wrapping, my engine bay looks too pretty for that

thanks......

 

Or the best of both worlds....

Ceramic coating on Steel Piping.

 

I got ceramic on my 3" charge pipe as well. Started out with SS. Send it out and its $25 a foot for the coating

-matt

 

thanks guys, i want BLACK!!!!! lol, ceramic coat, then paint blacxk i guess, right? ehhh...all this for a 3 inch pipe jesus what did u guys do for the BOV flange?

cut it off ure old pipe and had it welded to the new, or can shops just weld a BOV flange themselves?

no sense in ruining a perfectly good charge pipe...

I rawk.

 

u do NOT!!!

should we re enact this thread so they can sticky it?
