Are you producing these for yourself only or for others as well? I'm planning on mounting my intercooler behind the core support and moving my radiator back for better throttle response... would you be able to make custom piping for that application?

Post by **slw240sx** » Thu Jul 31, 2003 7:07 pm

they will be availble soon as i test fit it to a stock turbo CA.

sean IC kit will be soon !

this was the prototype hotpipe i will be providing these to every CA person and Sr people will have some made also. custom piping to the IC from infront of the RAD like the euro guys shouldnt be to hard.. we might have you make up a PVC model of how it fits in your car then ship it to use along with photos maybe and we can make it from there.

what kind of pipe, welder, and wire? I have some aluminized steel pipes from jcwhitney, and I'm thinking of renting a mig w/ some hard wire for a day and doing the piping.

Sounds great. It'll be a while before I get my intercooler anyway, right now i'm still working on getting the car running again, lol. I'll be sure to keep you in mind though.

Post by **slw240sx** » Thu Jul 31, 2003 7:07 pm

LOL , it cam off right after the photo session!! you should have seen the faces on the advance auto parts workers watching us put it on laughing our asses off taking all kinds of pictures and making a huge deal out of a 5$ Vtec sticker . . . i dont know if they knew we were making jokes or being serious ricers

An Si badge will give you the 30hp. The VTEC sticker is more like 6whp. Now the Type R sticker.... that's like adding a turbo. There is no limit to the power you can make with that.
