the upic pipe wored fine but the licp was iffy. the pipe that bolts to the turbo outlet was a little too big and touches the wastegate so i;m useing the stock licp for now

Sharkbite2000 Feb 22, 2007 06:36 PM

not bad a super low price would like to see dyno chart to see if there are good gains.

I wanna do a custom uicp w/ a gm maf and Im thinking an ebay piping kit might be the way to go....especially since its cheap and I dont wanna pay big $$$ to hack up a br or ams uicp if you know what I mean ;)

then you are simply brainwashed by all the big companies that are simply riping you off and making a fortune from unintelegent buyers spending rediculess amounts of money or the simplest of products.

in the honda world theres are countless of 600+hp cars running $150 ebay intercoolers. It just a matter of time before evo owners get smarter and eccept ebay intercoolers.

anyone that spends $500-1000 on a exhaust or more than 100 for a licp is an idiot
when in fact is mearly a U bend with a few welds on it . anyone that can change their oil can make a licp for like $50 or less

the only people that hate ebay are companies and shows because simply ebay sell many quality parts that no one can match for the price and also ebay sell name brand parts that also most shops cannot match in price.

looks good...but what kinds of power gains will you get with upgrading to this unit? Thanks in advance {thumbup}.

the but dyno does feel like its a litter faster. There was no lost in boost and there was no increase lag. i just installed this so it can suport my future 3076r or 35r turbo upgrade. i'm confidant it will suport 500whp with no problems

I agree with you here!!
Many companies have dedicated countless hours of research and development into improving the EVO (most of which are on EVOM). I say we support our vendors here in order to continue the progression and improvement of the EVO. How many stories have we heard of ebay garbage?
My confidence goes with Buschur, AMS, and all the other EvoM vendors!! PROVEN RESULTS!!

Thats because the ebay Chinese companies copy the product and then pay a person 25 cents a hour to make them. Sorry your too cheap to appreciate the hard work these local companies put into their product. They have to pay workers a good wage so they can support themselves.

this is a nice piece

riceball777 Feb 22, 2007 07:24 PM

there is no hardwork or reasearch and development into making exhaust piping and and intercoler piping.

I have a friend running 10.20 with an e-bay intercooler and a gt 35r so I think it is safe to say it is a very wise investment.
