09+ Ralliart Upper Intercooler Pipes

Can anyone tell me if Upper Intercooler Pipes that fit the EVO X will fit the 09+ Ralliart.
Thanks.

They will not fit without modification. The Evo X intercoolers are taller than the RA intercoolers so the UICP pipes are shorter.

They fit fine if you also use a Evo 10 FMIC

You can use a short piece of aluminum piping and a hose connector to fix that problem. Vibrant sells those parts for relatively cheap. Or, you do like Razorlab says and do it right with an EvoX FMIC. That's the more better option.

Or there is also the depot racing UICP that just replaces the rubber hose and not the elbow, and will work on RA without Evo FMIC. I used it for a while before I got my IC and then just bought the elbow as well.

DC Sports UICP kit includes extra parts for connection to either an RA or X turbo or IC (different reducing couplers for the turbo outlet pipe and different pipes for the IC inlet). So you can buy this kit and just swap out the parts it comes w/ as you upgrade the IC and/or turbo

You will have to relocate the bov with the x licp..and get about 2-3 ft of vac hose to route the vac-boost line from the bpv. There is also a way to retain your bpv location with an aluminum piece...look in the how-to section

I just did my Evo X IC + Evo X LICP + Evo X bov last night. I used the X's bov piping + the 3/8" steel pipe and lots of clamps = bov's original location.

smoother pipe should help with flow, as well as the the diameter, but mainly more of a looks thing
