Hi everyone, looking for a good place to have boost pipes made up for the new location of my FMIC.
Preferrebly someone in the Joburg area.
Also I am keeping my boost pipe before FMIC between 50mm - 75mm and after the FMIC between 70 and 75mm.

Did you try Jrs Exhausts on Ontdekkers, they should help, they have the equipment for 76mm madrel bends.
Thanks D will check it out.
Hi, I was qt JR exhaust on saturday and he quoted me R900 to make up and fit in any size in stainless and another R300 or so to polish the pipes. He did say that I would have to clear the route ie. relocate the battery and cut all the holes, fit the FMIC, basically all he will do is cut, bend and polish and fit the pipes. Make sure that you are happy that there is no debris, filings etc in the pipes before you start up.
sounds promising... thanks guys...
So just need to start the monster up this weekend without the boost pipes, and take it there next week...
Will it start without boostpipes?
No
Yip... Just don't expect anything fantastic...
Connect the filter directly on TB. Its like running the car without boost...
AFAIK - nothing wrong with this.
Hy gaan nie start nie my maat, het al getry.
I will let you know on Monday. I have done this previously without effort though... boost pipe came loose and I did not have the 200sx survival kit in the car - screwdriver...
Yea, I had a boost pipe blow off as well, Didnt run efficiently though.
I thought I blow the turbo, but the pipe just came off.
Also make sure you clean the pipes. :arrow:
Sorry...forgot to post about this...
The car started on the first turn and it was possible to adjust fueling etc...car running very smoothly
I will be taking it for the boost pipes shortly.. and driving it there without the boost pipes ... 0 boost.

I though a boost pipe popped off... but alas... my turbo blew....
I never know if you're joking, or if we have to spend 2 minutes in silence for your loss...
Hi Speed Breeder
Did you have the pipe work done? And what did the job cost you at the end?
Do you have any Pics?
wu Wicked...car is only drivable after fixing the hydraullic clutch problem on Saturday - hectic at work, so can hopefully go this Saturday or next week sometime...
Cool
Let me know how it turns out.
What size FMIC are you using?
hey wicked, never went to JR's. The guy wanted to charge R2k for it and needed my car for 2 days...
The 2k is still fine, but I aint leavin my sx anywhere for more than a couple of hours.
Bought ally tubing from Big Boss Auto, various silicone bends and hoses from Volkspares and DIY job at home.
All came to about R2500, but still have about 2 meters of ally tubing left, and some silly bends...
