IC Hardpipes?

Is there any bad IC hardpipes that we shouldn't buy for the Evo's? or are they all the same?.....

I have a set of INJEN hardpipes in stock you can come pick up. Probably the best available. Oh, this is the kit that includes the lower pipe also, but no intake.

Don't buy the GReddy or Helix. Both poor fitting by the battery.

Tbolt clamps have been changed to railed IDEAL clamps that can be made tighter than the clamps they replaced.

Stay away from the cheap LPI (logic performance) ones. The way it connects to the TB sucks.

do IC hardpipes actually yeild any HP increase, i know they wont blow off under high boost like the stock ones have a tendency to do, but will you make more HP? Will they enable you to hold more boost?

Karta, there's no improvement in "blowing off under high boost" than with the stockers, so that's not a benefit. In fact, the likelihood of blowing off an IC pipe or having a boost leak is much higher when you install IC pipes just because it's hard to seal everything off perfectly. There's negligible power gains from the upper pipe, but the lower pipe gives a little power and some increased spoolup. The UICP is mainly for looks on the Evo.

Dr. SS, please re-thinking moving the battery to the trunk unless you plan to make it an all-out drag car. It will make you illegal at most tracks.
