Title: Charge piping is pissing me off
Post by: ifly87 on August 22, 2009, 01:59:29 AM
I just put on a skank2 mani and bigger tb, I am using that cheap ass pre-bent ebay charge piping.

The shit is so gay it sends the hot side between the transmission and the radiator so you have to wrap you're lower coolant line around it. I would like to find a place that I can purchase charge piping even if I have to weld it up myself I have access to a tig, I dont care. I cant seem to find any kits and the ones on ebay either try and route it all retarted or dont have the right bends. I've surfed the web and cant really seem to find anything decent.

Where do you buy you're aluminum bends? even if its steel I guess but I just need to know where to get the shit.

A normal civic/teg will need at least seven 90* bends, so you'd be at $114 for a super kit - half that for steel. Some people can't weld the thin section on the outter radius of a 180*, keep that in mind if you (or your weldor) suck. If you don't mind welding, you can cut costs with pie-cuts. A 12" section can get you 180* worth with decent flow and a tight radius, which can be far cheaper.
