Sounds good Lee I will have to wait for the non-abs. The ones you have made so far are they to fill these orders or a product you will carry. Just wondering as we should get a list of confirmed buyers to match the qty you have produced if its just a one time production.
Send me the pics and I can host for you

Sounds good. IM waiting for the non ABS or perhaps a custom job for the Street Imports Intercooler. I would take the combo, upper / lower and intake.

Darn, those look nice. I wish I wasn't in savings mode, instead of spending mode. Am I safe to assume you'll be selling these from here on out, or is this a few month deal? If it's on the shelves for good, you'll be hearing from me in a couple of months.
Is anyone using the intake pipes on any 16G or larger turbos? I'll be putting my small 16G on soon, and I forgot to ask, if this will fit. The housings on a 14B and small 16G aren't that different are they?

A couple of questions. First is just about the J-pipe...back on the 20th of March, you were looking into changing these too. Is that not a go now? March20th: Ive been asked to throw the j-pipe in the trash so I'll see about that. The second thing is just the pricing, just wondering why we went from $150 for the two pipes, to basically double March11th: Who wants in on shiny upper and lower 1g intercooler pipes? 150 bucks plus shipping! March16th: As we have to have the Throttle body and BOV flanges laser cut out of house the price may be over 150 a bit. Probobly closer to 200{canadian funds}, April13th:"Upper 2.5" mandrel bent and polished 1G ABS intercooler pipe w/ couplers, clamps and laser cut flanges for throttle body and blow off valve $130. Lower 1G 2.5" mandrel bent intercooler pipe polished with couplers and clamps $120." And finally, since there's deal for all 3, is there a deal for just upper & lower? Like say $220 or so? Anyway, let me know. Thanks.

The thing is the factory j-pipe is crush-bent so it's flattened out. At least on my car. That's not very nice. Ideally you'd have a pipe and flange starting out at the same diameter as the compressor outlet, actually bigger to allow for porting, then expanded out to 2.5" gradually. Of course it's tricky cause the bend is right there. Not sure how much magic can be performed on today's mandrel benders... But even with straight j-pipes you can't use the argument of the big step reducing flow and making it worse. Right now instead of having the step at the turbo you have it after the j-pipe. Same thing. I couldn't tell how the licp was coupled to the j-pipe form the pics, but it looked like there's still a big step... Not trying to be an ass but a bit of constructive criticism never hurts I'm thinking you only do the design once, so you might as well do it right.

Steve, I thought it out wicked and came up with what we ended up doing. The turbo outlet is tiny, whoever doesnt like the idea has upgraged turbos long ago. The little j-pipe does the same tricks even a small mandrel {$$$$} bend would do, not to mention the {$$$$$} extra flange. Between the miniscul flow increases and what the extra cost would be {enough people still think 200 bucks is alot!!!???!!...For the upper and lower} {BTW Buschur charges 300 US just for the UPPER PIPE...ours is better} I left it alone that you can still upgrade turbos and leave the pipes alone. Velocity is built in the j-pipe, more I.D would increase lag time {think about it} pressure, etc. My lower pipe would put a smile on anybodys face. ...It works, its affordable.

Lee, how much is for the UIC pipe only, not polished, and without clamps and couplers? Since you don't make the LIC pipe for the 90 AWD, the 93 LIC pipe won't fit on my car.

Lee how are the 1g no ABS going? If you are willing to to load a bunch o those for a yorkdale meet I would still pay you for shipping to keep from having them damaged in shipping. Just a thought if a bunch of guys can get them all at once.

Lee, as we have discussed earlier, I'm all for the idea for you to bring the pipes to Yorkdae.
I know this puts you in a bad situation due to a lack of transportation but I rather see them in person first and hand you cash, instead of sending you money and waiting 2-3 weeks (why the wait? I though the pipes are all completed)
If you bring it to yorkdale, I would still be happy to pay you the same amount as per agreed so you save on shipping.
