What have you done to your MSP today?

[Wagonbacker9]

man, I really need to get goin on finding a hot pipe for my FMIC setup... my SSQV must be depressed sitting on a shelf.

buy a length of pipe and go to a muffler shot tell them the angle you want and most of them will bend it for you...

what I'm planning on doing is just mocking up with an ebay kit for now. maybe get a custom pipe make later. Unless someone is willing to give me specs/drawing on a hot pipe for a standard FMIC setup... you'd be my hero!

I wouldn't mind seeing that either so I can get some custom hardpipes made.

I'm going to mock my own up and I VERY seriously doubt you have the same core I do.

ok, just got made fun of for my mounted, unplumbed core on another forum... thats it... time to pick up a kit on ebay...

Do those fit our cars? I was tempted to get one just to get rid of the pos plastic pipes.

i doubt its the same core, but if I know where your IC inlet is relative to mine, I could adjust it accordingly. Mine's just a standard 29x6x3" core.. endtakes have the in/out in the center, which ends up about 3" below the bumper on center....

anything 6" or under can be mounted to the bottom of the bumper without cutting the crash bar... any thing bigger and you'll have to trim somewhere for space. my 6" is mounted under the bumper, I had to trim a TINY bit and the 2 bolts that hold the bottom of the bumper to the car can no longer be used... as of now they're just holding up the splash guard.

I'm not sure of the dimensions I forgot them but I bought it new for 70 bucks of the guy I am going to buy the VR4 off of... he bought it for that car... and its setting in the backseat of the Mazda at my friends shop. lol

But I do want the shortest possible piping... how are your pipes run Wagon

PLANS: I'm gonna run basically the standard setup for a hot pipe, and I've got a turbolife cold pipe that I'm going to add a small piece to to get over to the standard core... piping should be VERY short. I'm running the SSQV VTA on the hot pipe, and the BPV on the cold..

good. that's the best way to run.

its either that or hack up a beautiful cold pipe to put the MAF there... and I just can't bring myself to do it as long as the stocker holds boost.

I've though about just running the same type of setup that comes with the alteredcostoms sells for the hotside and some how running the cold pipe strait off th intercooler somehow... and relocate the maf to the hotside .
