yea i may just have to go and buy each piece individually from ebay

does anyone know if the standard hks bov weld in flange works for the forge as well? i think it does... just want to clarify - Alex, you would know!

CX Racing has a site, just use it. It'll be Ebay stuff but with the option of doing one single order.

Awesome! Thanks Matt! I am on it now and it's a little pricey but this way I may be able to avoid welding prices if they all have the flanged ends

I'm confused... How are you going to avoid getting the pipe welded?

if i buy the proper pipes from cx for my mock up they will come flanged. as long as the pipes are flanged i wont really need them welded.

the only fmic pipes i ever blow off are the ones that arent flanged :( I really wanna buy the hot side from Kristian but it doesnt make sense for him to only sell that... we will see though

P.S. Adam I may have another Red R soon :ph34r:

Never fails, even if you buy the pipes you need, you'll probably have to cut them down and be left with an end not flanged. I can't find it now, but someone posted a link to a bead roller. I made one with an old pair of vise grips and a muffler clamp. It works great....
