werd, heres me using my "Custom, no cutting involved piping kit." [:@] I could have saved myself an assload of money by just getting the random bends. Live and learn I suppose...

yeah, middle of summer, and as you can see it's very dark outside. I'm sure my neighbors were real impressed

I used a 2.5" aluminum piping kit off of ebay. It's just two straights, two U's, two 90's, two 45's and a bunch of couplers and clamps. I think I paid 150-200 I caan't be sure though it's been awhile. The worst part about it was welding the bov onto it. You have to make sure your adapter for your bov is alum. or you can't weld it on. Just something to remember to match up what ever you buy. Steel-steel or alum-alum.

Man, i dont know about that $200 deal. I got a DIY kit off ebay for like $90: 1 U, 3-4 90 degree, 4 10 inch pieces and 4 6 inch pieces. Luckily i found an aluminum flange and just tig welded it. Your better off saving the money and putting a little physical labor into it.
