What would I need if I buy...

...this LICP pipe from ebay. Can someone tell me what couplers I need to get to have this fit the stock intercooler and the stock turbo outlet.

I never looked at the stock turbo outlet and intercoller diamaters and its 3 degrees outside now...

Thanks

eek man, that's not something I would want on my car. but if your looking for couplers it looks like the ets ones would work. the one that goes into the inner cooler stays the same size iirc and the one that goes on the upper part tapers down to like a 2.5 or 2 inch diamiter...hard to remember since my licp was the 2nd mod i did on my car.

make sure you get some strong t bolt clamps for that thing. i would hate to be under that car when it blows off in bum f*ck no where and you gotta get it back on. Mine has been on for over 20k with 0 problems.

I can't remember the sizes, but you could use the stock couplers. But the stock couplers have those stupid worm clamps and are weak. Your best bet is take the stock one and measure it, it's really not that hard to do. If you need some good silicone couplers go to siliconeintakes.com. Make sure you use T-bolt clamps. I ordered a Nisei LICP and it had everything with it.

I bought the muse licp off ebay and it works fine. Comes with the couplers and hose clamps - everything you need and works fine... much cheaper than other "name" brands and is the same damn thing.

Understood guys. Where can I get an AGP or Neisi one? How does the ETS LP2 one compare to those?

I bought the muse licp as well. I haven't installed it yet but it comes with everything you need. Don't listen to others about name brand licp. A good ebay one will work as good as any other.

I have the full Muse licp, uicp & battery kit with the odyssey and all of those cost a little more than a buschur or ets uicp & licp combined. ETS's piping kit is mild steel unless you choose the $41 polished stainless steel option & the Muse licp is stainless steel for almost $100 less.

Got mine from www.vr-speed.com but I think they sell on ebay too.

Buddy,
I just installed my muse licp. And wouldn't buy anything else. Great price,and comes with the t-bolts and the silicone coupler for the j-pipe side,and for the ic side you just use the stock one. If you slide the stock one down a bit you'll get a better fit. But it looks good and the throttle response and spool up time are like night and day.
So I say go with the muse if you want the same,if not more power for way less $$,so you can spend ure money on more parts ;-)

Stainless steel is stainless steel. As long as it's mandrel bent, who cares. The couplers and hose clamps are fine.

There are certain things I would never, ever, buy from ebay brand stores, but I'm not paying $175 for a licp. Dumb.
