Guest bastaad525 Posted August 12, 2003 Share Posted August 12, 2003 Lots of performance auto part places will sell small sections of pipe with 45 or 90 degree mandrel bends in them, I've heard anywhere from $17 to $28 per section. PAW, Mcmaster-Carr, JC Whitney, should all have them. I had my BOV welded onto the stock zxt Jpipe for $20 at a muffler shop, but was quoted as high as $50 at a few other places before I found the best deal. It's very easy and quick and muffler shop people can be fickle about pricing so definately shop around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BRAD D Posted August 12, 2003 Share Posted August 12, 2003 I might be making 3" 304 SS down pipes for the L28ET swap, might have some photos next week. This down pipe would come off the 1/2" flange at 2.5 then murge up to 3" before the two 45deg bends. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ON3GO Posted August 12, 2003 Share Posted August 12, 2003 how much brad? if its not too much ill be down for that.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BRAD D Posted August 12, 2003 Share Posted August 12, 2003 I was thinking 250ish but I dont know, I will keep you posted. I will have a better idea when it is done, most beople bump up to 3" after the down pipe so it might be tight, but I have some people here in the city with the swap done so... we will see if it fits. I think it will flow nicer if the two first bends were 3" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
