Hey,

Why not run the stock pipes?

 

[Ryoga28]

The stock pipes are good enough...only get the hardpipes if you want to run a bov to get rid of the turkey.

i guess i can? but doesnt the plastic crack/expand under boost?

 

[MoJoeTCM]

if no extra performanced is gained i will just stay smic, exhaust, and possible dsm...

stock pipes will be fine and actually probably better as far as heat transfer goes. Just make sure to use the stock silicone bands for a good seal.

Best location

I'm not sure where the best spot is.

I have a relocated MAF and BOV (SSQV). Coming from the throttle body, you should have your MAF no more than about 12" away. On mine, I have a 90 elbow off the TB and then the MAF.

Your BOV should be located about another 8 to 12" before the MAF on the cold pipe. Optionally, you can put the BOV on the hot pipe.

Here are some pics. Hope this helps.
