http://www.jcwhitney.com sales mandrel piping....Im really like http://www.turbopiping.com and http://www.turbocomponents.com they are both the same site ...I have a turbo project going on as of now...No pics of piping..

 

wow, they have widebands for $79

 

I got mine from JC whitney. It seems to be pretty good stuff. It has only been on my car for about a week tho. It cost me 80 bucks for all the piping that i needed. If you want the part numbers here they are.

81ZX2953P - GET 1 OF THESE
81ZX3031U - GET 2 OF THESE
81ZX3035N - GET 1 OF THESE

If you don't understand how it all goes together, go to this site... http://www.cse.uconn.edu/~yelevich/turbo/turbo.html

This is where I got my piping info.

 

MAN that is a great site, I wish I would have went there instead of turbonectics.

 

you can problaby find some of the same piping that jcwhitney sells in the different muffler shop around you... I drove to miami mufflers here and they had the same 304 ss piping cheaper than jcwhitney and they cut the pipe to exactly what i needed for free... just another idea for you to look at...

 

I also hear some NAPA auto stores carry mandrel U-bends.

 

they do?I havent even looked threw most of the site yet...


They may be generic

 

well i was going to use either ss or alluminum i can get allu inum cheeper than ss what yall think

 

aluminum is better because it will dissapate more heat than SS, but aluminum pipe is WAAAAAAAYY expensive, I paid $40 shipped for 3 feet of 2.25" aluminum pipe
