My custom made LICP pipe

Tell me what you think. It is a full 2.25" execpt where it goes into the stock hose from the turbo. I will post installed pictures soon. The welds at the end are beads so the pipe wont blow off. This was pretty easy to do.

Thanks for the props!! This is aluminum steel. The same stuff you can get at your local muffler shop. It weighs in at around 3lbs. I painted it with cermaic based aluminium spray paint. It makes it look really nice.

I notice that spollup is improved and it seems like it reaches redline faster. Overall it is a very good mod and better gains than the upper pipe I made by myself. All I have to say is my TurboXS H34 valve is very audible now...almost sounds like it is venting.
