I have search everywhere and cant find answers. I have a sr20det redtop in my s14 and my question is, what down pipe is everyone using? i bought a used peakboost kit but the down pipe that comes off the turbo down isnt for the kit, its crushed bent and someone made it. I wanted to know what 3 inch down pipe i could get thats 5 bolt and will work, is there a difference between down pipes that fit s13 to s14 or are they both interchangeable? Sorry if this has been asked but i've look on ebay and found someone but there all bent different ways and i didnt know if the engine bays between the s13 and s14 were that much different. thanks for reading...

Alot of the top mount kids have custom pipes made. Its eaiser than buying somehting that sorta works and fabbing it to fit.

Well that kit came with a 4 bolt DP, since your using a 5 i dont think many people are going to be in your shoes. What you could do is get a 5 Bolt Weld Flange and take to do a shop and get some piping made.

You are better off taking it to a shop so they can fab it for you. It will save a lot of hassle. Here is my T70 3 inch DP stainless steel one from Boost Logic.
