Well, I got uber screwed over at work, and I got fired today:( Didn;t even get to go in and give my side to the false allegations. So I am now strapped for cash, and if I don;t get my motor in soon, I think my mother will ask me to sell it to keep from having to pay my bills. I will have the $$$ to get a FMIC in the fall. I need as much of the setup as you got: couplings, clamps, clips, etc. Thanks guys!!

BTW, I don;t need the stock bypass valve tho.

it doesnt have a stock bypass valve. the CA never came with one.

what all do you need? by monday i should have the front mount intercooler for mine all set up, so i wont need my old one anymore. if all goes well i should be able to let my intercooler and all the piping go if you need it still. the hot pipe does have a flange for a apexi twin chamber bov on it, dont know if you want that pipe or not, i guess it wouldnt do you any good unless you had the same bov. anyway, let me know.

Hey, i posted in the b/s/t forum and i may let all mine go but i gotta see what i can do about getting a front mount and piping to see if i have funds. I have a lot of stuff to get and need rid of and a lot of stuff to get. Anyone got a cheap bov?

I have the stock smic and a bunch of piping from mine I don't think the piping is complete, but most of it is there. It's all completely disassembled, though. I also have a 1st gen DSM bov. Hell, I've even got a starion front mount if you want that. I won't be able to take pics or ship any of this until saturday, since I'm out of town now. Lemme know if you want any of that, and we'll see what we can work out.

r34: Do you have the stock hot pipe? I need as much as you got. In a perfect would, I can get a full setup that I can just bolt right on.

xyster: How much piping are we talking? Is it enough to get anywhere in the car?

I'm not even sure. Venus just sent me a box of piping and a smic. They said it wasn't complete, and I never checked. It might be a lot less hassle to just get a complete setup from nab911

it's in decent condition, holds pressure as far as I know, just a few bent fins. It looks about how you'd expect a fmic of its age to look. I bought it off e-bay for $135 shipped, so I'll let it go for $80 plus shipping. I can get you pics on saturday when I get home. I also have a bunch of 2 1/4" aluminized steel mandrel bends, 2 1/4 silicone couplings, and a 1st gen dsm bov if you're interested. If you're going to Drift Day Atlanta on sunday, I can bring any of these parts with me.

let's see...$80 for the intercooler1st gen BOV w/ flange, pipe, etc - $30I'll have to see exactly what piping and couplings I have to give you a price on that. For piping, I think I have like 2 90's, 3 45's, and 1 180. Couplings, I think 1 12" piece, and 4 3" long pieces.

I'll get pics when I get home, maybe as early as friday afternoon, most likely saturday.

just fair warning, though you prolly already know: making a custom fmic setup with a starion fmic and mandrel bends is an agonizing pain in the ***. There's a reason I have a greddy vspl on my car, and a pile of extra parts laying in the garage.

yes, I take paypal. I'll get you pics tomorrow. If you don't have the money by sunday when i'm at drift day, that's cool. I can give you the parts then, and you can pay me later. I mean, you live in GA, and I travel all throughout GA during the week, I can just come to your house if you stiff me, heh.

Ok, here's pics of the stuff. Turns out I had a few more pipes and few less couplers than I thought. I thought that Starion FMIC was in better condition than that, too.
