Cheapest route for a Turbo inlet pipe????

[driftin8ez]

I was reading though the CA Upgrade guide which is killer by the way and i've decided that it is time for a hard turbo inlet pipe. Does anyone know if maybe an ebay ram air from some car say a honda accord arbitrarily speaking fit? What are you guys running for your Turbo Inlet Pipe? Just to clear things up i'm talking about the pipe between the MAF and the Turbo on a stock setup.

ok i had bought an ebay intersooler kit and i took one of the pipes which was an 90degree angle pipe and an angle coupling which was temporay and is still there it works for me cheap but works for me lol. i saw this one from an company i think i may get that one ill post it up later .

That roguepi one is nice, but killer expensive (IIRC ~$150). I have a PipingPro one from the Zilvia group buy.

The only issue is, you have to have it custom made. I have a T25G and inlet flange, so that will be different than the CA's T25 and the later G/T28s. Chris (c-rad) has the same one on his CA, but for his T28.

The one from the zilvia group buy looks really nice. Which one should i order. They seem to be made for The SR. If i order the SR T25 kit will it fit on my motor. Stock turbo right now. Also what will happen later when i upgrade to an sr turbo say t28. Should i just reuse the t25 inlet flange?

You can use the GT28R inlet, just cut it and reweld it so the inlet points in the right direction (toward the fender). Basically, for a CA w/ T25G turbo and inlet (SR bits), tell him to flip it upside down to how it would be installed on an SR and mount the ports that way. Kinda hard to describe, I know, but the bends on the CA are weird.

You could just send Aure (PipingPro's owner) that pic of mine. I also reccomend that whichever one you go for, spring for some wrapped silicone couplers. I don't like the rubber ones provided with the kits.

so when i order i should just tell him i have a CA in an s13 with the stock turbo and he will know what to do? I'm not going to upgrade the turbo till the spring so i will need it to work on my stocker.
