Has any one purchased a set of the ebay intercooler pipes? They look like a knock off of the AGP pipes. I was wondering if they had any fitment issues.

I would not buy those....

 

^^^ me neither

 

It fits well and works great, I was very surprised on the fitment.
I would get a better filter but either way it is a good deal.

 

The ebay pipes usually end up leaking as they are thin and easily lose their shape from clamping and turn oval at the ends. I hate boost leaks so they aren't worth it to me.

 

1) that thing is not worth $380
2) you can buy, for maybe $100 more, a full set from a reputable brand, and you won't have fitment issues...or cheap couplers...or poor welds...or cheap piping

if you're hell bent on saving money, why not just go get some crush bends from your local exhaust shop? i'm sure they can bend anything for you - pipes, ego, gender, etc.

 

Since the LICP pipes are not that necessary, take your money and buy a nice UICP and an intake if you want. Nisei pipe is around $140 and you can also get an intake if you wish. Dont sacrifice quality for price.

 

You’re on the money that’s exactly my thought. I was thinking of going with the Nisie UICP and maybe their Intake pipe with a drop in filter in the stck air box.

 

Stay away! The piping looks nice in the pic, but they probably do suck. Also, as far as ebay parts go... $380 that s a rip off. ETS complete intercooler piping kit: $449.

 

I'm not condoning this ebay sale, but for the price its not bad. The seller has no negatives and only one neutral. For a low HP car not looking to set records, this might work out for them. If not.. learn and move on.

 

thats what i would do too.

the ETS system doesn't include the CAI.

sorry if the link is inapproiate, it was the first one i found when i searched.

 

Low HP or not, if you're going to mod your car, you might as well do it right and get quality, proven parts. That's my .02.

 

Boost leaks? This kit is stainless steel and the welds were top quality.
It came with quality couplers and t-bolts.

I installed this kit for a customer and it was nice, It was shipped from xspower.

 

i would think this is the perfect pipe kit for rota fans
