dont get mad im new to forums
I just finished r&d for the msp hard pipes at turbo hoses
in san ramon it will be availible in about 4 weeks
it uses the stock intercooler but rerouts the intake it is also a complete bolt inyou wont need anything but a few basic hand tools
the intake WILL flow more are than any one elses
it starts from the turbo at 2 1/2" then from the mas sensor it goes to 3" into the fender to a ram taper to a 6" inch filter the ram alone has been tested on many cars and makes a minimum of 6 horses power
and the reson they are makeing the kit is because so many msp owners called in asking for it
over 50 calls in 4 hours! did you guys plan that
oh yah it also relocates the coolant bottle and keeps the stock bpv and kit will work with stock intake
and looks really good

Posting info here is fine. But you should PM Antoine or enry (the owners/admins of the boards) to get Authorized Vendor status here.

yes its a fine place to put this since it directly relates to the msp
and you only have to get that authorixation if you are with the company doing the sales on here, if not, welcome to the boards anyways:D

buncha pipes and hoses shouldn't cost more then 100bux with a good profit. I can't understand how any one can charge 300+bux for buncha aluminum pipes that cost less then 20bux to make. I know R/D for bending pipes don't cost more then few hundred bux since i know many custom performance shops make intercooler pipes for less then 500bux.

yeah wicked I like how you butted in the FMIC thread of Wagner's, very professional of you. So far I'd say you've made a pretty bad first impression on this board.

Where di the $600 price come from? For that price, I could spend an extra $300 and get a FMIC and pipes from Wagner or Ion.

That was the quote from www.turbohoses.com when I posted last, now it's $400 for the hard pipe kit, and $340 for the CAI, and $390 for the superflow SRI (just checked :))....granted, these are estimates, but still steep in my book.

I agree 100% as for the price of the pipes and SRI, I could spend a little more and get a FMIC, pipes, and intake from ION or Wagner. Plus, the pipes is not the weakest link like the IC or turbo IMO.
