Default Custom kit. I/C PIPING possibility?

Anyone ever seen this pre-fab piping kit from GReddy? Looks like nice bends for $150 bucks total...



I may end up just buying DRAG 3 piping... not sure... anyone know if the diameter of the DRAG kits piping can support 450whp?

Interesting... would you happen to know the diameter of DRAG 3 piping? Looks like 2 inch from turbo to inlet of I/C... 2.25 inch out into t/b?

Any idea how much power that will support? (2 inch from turbo to I/C, 2.25 from I/C to T/B)

Starting in a couple of weeks, I will begin a project all winter long in an effort to make about 450whp... and piping is the only real part of the kit that I haven't figured out yet. I like the look of the DRAG piping, but I think it may be a bit narrow for my power expectations...

Includes 8 pieces of various different mandrel steel bends, one aluminum elbow, silicon connectors, and clamps to make a custom intercooler setup!

On the site they say it is universal and it is mandrel bent.

I tried ordering this a couple of months ago, seems that it is in back order. Check to see if it is still in back order.

That is NOT mandrel bending. You can see plainly where the piping reduces in size during the bend. What a rip.

It's not a complete piping setup, it requires the IC kit also. I bought it and found out the hard way.

those are nice for $150!~

btw the drag piping is about $400-$500, its not cheap, on my car i did not have to cut 1 pipe at all either! unlike many others that ive heard having ti trim some of the piping. btw, koop i might be selling my car, wanna buy it? maybe sell it for $6-$7k, want to start a b20/vtec NA 6th gen hatch project
