There is a gb on Zilvia for aluminum hotpipes, and since I bought an intake from the guy, and I have had an aluminum coldpipe for a while now, I want to change out the old mild steel hotpipe (Thanks Sean!!) What/where are the size differences in the SR and CA hotpipe. I know someone will get this one quick, so lock her down once answered.

I searched, BTW, as I know we have discussed this before, but to no avail. Thanks guys.

AFAIK, the SR and CA hotpipes are the same. Mine bolted right up at least. Its when you switch to a T28 that the **** hits the fan.

As mentioned, they *should* be interchangable with stock turbo's in place.

But the SR one is actually slightly shorter then the CA hot pipe :P

I am using an SR T25G, and Sean told that the SR one is longer on the length that the BOV usually goes on (the straight part right next to the valve cover). From all that I have heard, they are not interchangeable with a SMIC anyway. With an FMIC they are.
