So what have you guys used for fmic piping? how much fab work did you end up having to do?



I'm kinda stuck at trying to piece together something but only have access to a MIG through work and I doubt that they'll let me leave the tib sitting around for a week while I try to figure out what I need to do. So if anyone knows of the best fitting setup, that would be great. BTW I plan on using 2.5 inch tubing and a 28"x7" intercooler mated to a garrett gt28rs turbo with a 3" x 2-2.5" coupler right off the turbine.

hope this will give you an idea on what to do.

in the top picture, is that a braided hose line wrapped around the tubing? Why?

ScoupeLS

Because it was too long. LOL that way i could keep it away from the downpipe.

Some more detail pictures of an install ... $200 in labor.

^ Rickey's work is always top quality sh*t!



Where did you get your IC piping powder coated at?

you REALLY need to put up some more install pics of our setup bmxer, that is probably the bestIC setup i have seen. simplicity is what i like most of it. 200 in labor is a damn good price for tig welding aluminum IMO.

Man I wish I could weld like that...lol

Same guy as BMXER (Rickey, from Speedfactory Racing) Made my Cast Tubing Manifold, my custom front mount and all the Ic piping they do all work in shop form simple to full custom builds!



Rickey is very well known for his amazing work, also not only is it amazing, but fairly affordable for what they do!



Even in house dyno tuning!



I will post pictues of my setup when i get home!

You defiently want the cross flow intercooler the one where the tubing is not on the same end. It enables the most efficient transfer of air and then make sure yuo keep your bends as smooth as possible with as little of an angle as possible this also helps flow. The pipe sizing seems good enough for the specs you are looking to run. And make sure that all your metal pipe has flanges you can put down a bead around the pipe to mimic the pictures above or find some big compression rings off of industrial plumbing fixtures and weld them on. Else your hoses will pop off when you boost up. Also if you are using a MAF and not MAP system make sure your blow off/diverter recirculates back in the system or else your car won't run as good as it should. The guy looks like he does good work but that system could be so much better then how he has it routed.
