    I've purchased a turbo kit for my 00rs haven't recieved it yet but pretty soon. I was wondering if anybody knew of any shops around this area that does really good custom piping(intercooler,turbo piping)

    I have a MRT front mount intercooler already custom made for a GC8 bod car. its on a japanese ej20G engine right now, but i'm probably geting rid of it at some point this winter. If you want it, i'll sell the intercooler,piping and bumper beams all in one shot.

    Really??? A turbo kit on the GC? Hot!

    What is the turbo kit name brand? If it's a real kit, it should come with everything so you don't have to run around the city looking for odds and ends. The intercooler, fuel injectors, and plumbing should all be included.

    It's a custom kit i purchased from this guy on rs25.com. I was just thinking if i recieved the kit and don't like the pipings then i would custom make my own. I"m thinking stainless steel up and down pipes and aluminum intercooler pipes, hopefully converting it to front mount instead. That's only for now though, i'm planning on throwing a jdm motor in the far future. Hopefully i'll get my kit in this week. Fong your old subbies gonna be boosted hahaHHAA...

    ^^I didn't want to take out all the pink. A reason that comes to mind is some guys here like pink. :lol: Ok. Let's forget about my hue-less pink car with three bunnies in it and stay on topic. :p

    well i'm just gonna use what i got with the kit right now which is the safcII along with a proecm. Eventually i'll upgrade to the greddy ultimate and yes wrxboy2003 can make exhuast but no mandrel bends. Aluminum and stainless steel but i don't know about titanium.

    Yipes. I would re-budget and live on ramen for a month, whatever you have to do, just get some REAL engine management SOON.
