Looking for this everywhere

[endo617]

anyone know where i can get this intercooler pipe from the manifold down with the BOV flange

 

[endo617]

nobody huh, where are the boosted folks

 

[AlexD]

SRE used to make intercooler piping, but its sometimes hard to find.

There will be plenty of sites that should have that portion in stock ,otherwise have a shop make it for you

 

[endo617]

i see complete kit with the piece but cant find it separately, i hate custom fab looking parts, i want it to be clean

Custom fabrication work cant be clean?

ok..

do you think this kit was something bought off a shelf? no, thats custom fabrication work. and 99% of custom fabrication work that is done by a good company looks eons better than off the shelf stuff you can buy from any brand.

My thought to was with using less couplers or welds, it would have less drag, this is a mock up of where i wanted to route the piping, its ugly right now but i will be getting a thinner drycell, like a odyssey battery. also moving the pipe away from distributor too

 

[AlexD]

do you have room if you moved the charge pipe lower?

 

[endo617]

probably but do you see how many couplers i have lol

 

[AlexD]

thats just asking for a boost leak issue. Your best bet is to get a thinner battery, or to relocate the battery itself, and have a custom piece made by a good shop.

Its hard to mess up that kind of stuff unless the shop is absolutely horrible.

I had bought an IC kit from a shop online and honestly, it wasnt the best. If I did it all over again, Id have it custom fabricated. That way its made to fit 100% for your setup.

lol i said i was going to get an slim Odyssey battery or something like a Braile, idk yet, but yeah going to have to go custom, should be working on getting this thing running soon with a throw away motor till i can finish my real one

I know I'm not known all that well around here but I do custom sheetmetal/welding fab and a piece like what your looking for is a fairly simple deal... Not very pricey either. If you want a price i could get you an estimate. All i need to know is
a. what material (aluminum, stainless, or titanium... warning titanium get expensive quick)
b. what diameter
c. how many total degrees of bend
d. how many weld joints would be acceptable (less joints equals less money to an extent)
e. is the pipe in your first pic EXACTLY what you want? because looking at your first setup I don't think it will work.
f. do you want the welds blended in (read as not visible) or just raw? blended cost a few more greenbacks.

let me know, works kinda dried up lately, ill do it for cost and your vouch on my work.

looking at this image, is that sohc motor in a civic chassis or something? and is it me, or is that strut bar all messed up

Everything you see in the pic is not done yet, its a D15 mini-me throwaway motor and its a 91 Civic Si(ED7)
