Custom SR Aluminum Intake Pipe Kit group buy!
Finally!! A solid aluminum polished intake pipe for your SR20DET!
This 2.5" aluminum pipe has a fitting for both catch can and for recirculating your BOV. The sweet thing is that since it's a solid aluminum pipe, you can definitely hear your BOV - which is one thing most people would lose when recirculating with the stock rubber intake pipe. I use a Greddy Type S bov and it's still really loud recirculating. All I used to hear was air wooshing when i used to use the stock rubber intake. You'll definitely hear and feel the difference between this pipe and stock. PLUS you'll be able to hear your turbo more - help it breathe and hear that baby spool Here are some pictures-- Pic 1 The intake kit will come with Option Racing couplers and clamps, hose for catch can, two brackets you may choose to use for bracing, and your chosen polished aluminum intake pipe. Pic 2 Here's a comparison pic between the aluminum pipe and stock rubber pipe. The stock one looks bigger but that's because it's standing on the catch can fitting. Pic 3 Here's my intake that i've been using for over 1/2 a year. And no, the MAFS plug isn't touching the hotpipe...I need to cut a zip tie to give it some slack :P Important Please contact me first to check on availability before ordering, just in case. If you have any questions, feel free to email me or PM me. Thanks Custom Options and Pricing: You have three choices when choosing the intake pipe: These prices all include shipping (which costs about $10-12) T25 or T28 Stock Turbo Intake Kits Kit 1 -- Intake pipe with just the fitting for catch can: $60 shipped Kit 2 -- Intake pipe with fitting for both catch can and BOV recirculation: $70 shipped Top Mount Turbo Intake Kit -- I decided to include this because a few people asked about it - 90º Intake Pipe for top mount turbos - with your choice of fittings: Kit 1 -- Just the pipe, no fittings: $45 shipped Kit 2 -- Catch can fitting only: $50 shipped Kit 3 -- BOV recirulation fitting only: $55 shipped Kit 4 -- Both catch can and BOV recirulation fitting: $60 shipped If ordering the 90º pipe, let me know where you want the fittings/bungs to be put on the pipe. Everyone's setup is different, so please let me know. If you have a Z32 MAFS, I also offer 3" - 2.5" coupler reducers. If you want one, add $6.50. eBay offers them for $9 shipped so I think this is a decent price. As for those of you who already have the pipe and/or just need the coupler, PM/email me your zip and i'll give you a price. These are about 1/3 to 1/4 of the price of more expensive kits out there, which don't even have the bungs for recirculation or catch cans! Some things to keep in mind before ordering: 1- I've test fit these on a couple of other people's cars, and they fit great! Keep in mind that depending on what size your air filter and MAFS is, this intake pipe may or may not need to be trimmed at the ends. Since it's a solid piece, unlike the stock intake, you can't really bend it around for adjustment. When test fitting, everyone got theirs to fit by adjusting it via the couplers; push the couplers in more or out more to give the air filter more room. 2- The reason I believe that no manufacturer makes these pipes is because everyone's BOV is mounted differently. I use ER's hotpipe w/Greddy BOV flange. My BOV sits closer to the radiator than say, the stock mid-piece w/BOV. Since these are all custom, make sure you let me know where your BOV is located. Generally, I've been putting the bungs in the location (see pic 3). My BOV is around the area where (on the stock hotpipe) the middle coupling is. I can put the recirculation bung further down the intake pipe if you have the BOV welded onto the stock hotpipe. It will be estimated (better if you take a pic and send it to me). I can't guarantee you it will be 100% perfectly lined up with your BOV outlet (even though thats where the flex hose will be used to connect the two). Since these have yet to be made for everyone, it will be first come, first serve. General wait time will be about a week before shipping it out, at most. I prefer PayPal but will accept Money Order, however those who are able to pay first will be put first on the list. PayPal email: [email protected] Again, be sure to tell me what kit you want, where your BOV is mounted, and anything else I should know. Tracking information will be provided.

drifter_e, is that a custom hotpipe? if you could, it would be great if you took the picture from the sideview. Basically, standing by the driver-side fender facing the engine and taking a pic, that way, I can do a better estimate of where to weld....and i could try tilting the bung toward the left more so the hose wouldn't end up in a 90º angle.
The whole purpose of trying to get the bungs welded as close to the BOV as possible is to increase the sound of the BOV. We all know the hoses decrease the sound. Although, some people don't really care about the sound as much as they do about the fact that it's a solid pipe instead of a flexible rubber one |

Thanks NZO.
Tenchuu, I'm not positive if they fit on an S15 since non of the people who i test fitted these for had an S15 engine, but i think it will work if it has identical stock intake pipe as S13/S14. Send me a pic of your set up and maybe i'll get a better idea of what you're working with. Projekt_Sil80, sent you a PM. |

Tenchuu, i'm pretty sure you won't have much trouble adapting it
95zilvia, you pay, I make it (give me about a week, at most), and send it out. The fitting is about 3/8" and you should have no problems getting it to work with your hosing. |

Some people have asked for an intake with no fittings. As of right now, I'm not offering one with no fittings. If there's enough interest, maybe I'll keep it in mind for the future. I suggest to those who want a bung-less intake to buy stock intake kit 1 and use a plug on the catch can fitting. I use this plug that actually came with my catch can:
