Re: charge pipes (Bongnak)
i think 1g???dsm turbo eclipses use hose for there pipes also..tough *** hose, but hose 
think about it..which is more likely too induce heat and heat the air inside of it..rubber, or stainless steel?

I run radiator hose on my own setup. I beleive most radiator hose is rated at a minimum of 30psi if i remember correctly, but i would imagine the larger hose would be rated for more. I never had a problem in almost a year, boosting 10psi. I used metal exhaust sections as couplers.

I did this 5-6 years ago with my civic, go to truck or large trailer supplies shop and they have a large size radiator hoses, try to look for radiator braidied hose, a lil more reinforce than standar rubber radiator hoses...
