Anyonw/Where Have SMIC Hard Coldpipe?

[rico05]

I really want to run an ARC sidemount, and I can just get an Enjuku etc. hot pipe, but I want a nice cold pipe as well. Anyone know of where I can get one in aluminum? Anyone wanna make a few bucks?;)

[XtremeHKS]

I want to know the same thing.

speaking of SMIC's, my SR ARC SMIC has 3 outlets/inlets on it.. where does the 3rd go?



the one w/ the peice of rubber hosing going back out across the fins.. what is it for? I've seen it on other SMICs...

stock bypass valve... for SR's. just block it off, or I have an HKS bov that mounts there I might be selling:) it attaches to that rubber hose.

I thought it might be, but it seemed an odd place to put it... I'll block it off, I have a SR hotpipe w/ Prof Sheepdog BOV on it

Hey, how much boost will that ARC take? Would 12pounds be too much w/ an IC sprayer? How much bigger than stock is it? And Sean...where are those pics you promised?;)

[biosehnsucht]

I have no idea, I needed a SMIC (since I don't wanna advertise too much, no FMIC) and it was available, so I got it. better than stock SR, better than stock CA, presumably

I figure its plenty for now, since I'm going to run stock boost for now and not much more than that anytime soon..

I also have a 5Zigen SR coldpipe that I'm going to modify to fit if possible.. and the stock coldpipe, OMG so small by comparison..

12 pounds is ok... i've even heard 14 is fine. I plan on running 10 or so and maybe finding a fan to put on the front:)

Just do what sean is doing. There MR2 guys get a small SPAL fan and put it on there intercooler and it works nicely.

hey rico, i bet if you bring your stock cold pipe somewhere someone could make you an aluminum copy. there are afew shops around orlando that should, and from what Korey says there are afew shops in your area too... (can't think of any names at the moment though)

Sure would be nice to see pics of yours Sean;)

I think that my IC sprayer will work in leiu of a fan. I ahve yet to see heat soak when I use it, and when I forget to....damn IC is almost too hot to touch.
