yeah Tracy, I want to ask you where you got your metal pipe? Was it hard/expensive to get? I would like to have one like yours, too!

I Bought mine off of a member here years ago, I can't remember who. I can be on the lookout for you one though.

Never thought about it but it would be a nice idea to change that pipe to a larger size but it might be too tight to fit.

I believe Mike got the Intake Pipe in the 3" Alumn.

I installed the IC-TB pipe today and let me tell you that I am very pleased with it, def noticed improved throttle response and lots less loss of boost to the engine now...when I hit the gas the car now moves and instead of having a few second gasp for air Twisted Evil

Few seconds? Well i noticed the OEM one getting blow as a balloon when i was testing my BOV and that was not even full boost. You would notice something but not a great win I think.

I didn't install mine yet, I got al couplers but I want a 90 degree 1" pipe welded for my BOV and a nipple for my waterinjection nozzle.

I like the pipe made by JB Racingparts in their BOV kit, It looks like they welded two 90 degree pipes together. But they don't sell it separate, and whole kit is like $415, that's too much for a pipe, I already got the BOV.

Bro I was being sacrcastic on a few seconds, just plainly stating that it feels a lot better in throttle response than the stock OEM hose.

Sorry my bad Smile I didnt get the sarcasm in there Embarassed

Its all good man, I guess when you type something out on it sounds different as when you actually say it in person.
