FYI: Buschur now sells an UIC pipe that doesn't require the smaller battery... I'd have bought that except that I just bought the whole RMR hardpipe kit cheap used from a friend...

I think most everyone agrees that Buschur is great quality and generally among the most affordable...

If I were you I would wait. I am working with a guy (shop) on making a great up pipe for the EVO made 100% aluminum and for a great price, just wait until JAN. I will be the first to have it and pics will be on here soon. The shop is well known for making pipes and hoses for many cars including Vipers. Best part, the price will be great and I am sure it will match every one budget.

Over priced. On the buschur 200 one, like he asked, is it all the way down, and it looks like they don't relocate the bov. is it for fitment issues since the more expensive one gives more room to move it?

DOn't know if they are open right now too call.

Ya, I know what you mean: D . I have done a lot of research and all I want to say that aluminum is what MUST be used NOT SS. It's much lighter and it soaks heat much faster, hens why does Mitsu use aluminum piping in stock EVOs? Aluminum is the way to go. Many vendors here don’t use aluminum because the process of bending it is much more complicated and more expensive than SS or steal. Furthermore the aluminum pipes are more expensive than SS (these are facts not opinions).
