Ok... I've found someone who can make us some up for the VR4, he's going to do mine first, then get me a price....

For those of you who are unaware, the inlet pipes swell under boost which (from what i can gather) is not efficient and strangles some of the power.

So, show of hands :thumbsup: who's interested, it will be the 3 main pipes I'll be asking for... (left of engine, top of engine and right of engine) I'll get a group buy going...

Mike :thumbsup:

Quite pointless unless you do the two under the bumper as well /Hmmm

They will look nice though :thumbsup:

if you get all the pipes sorted, and made sure they got the flange-thingy-me-bobery-doo to hold the pipes on i'd be interested.

I got a quote from a guy in NZ for the tubing from inlet to turbos to be 2.5", turbos to the Y at 2.5", then Y to intercooler and 3", install a 600mmx300mmx76mm intercooler, and intercooler to throttle body in 3" for about NZ$1300.
