Needless to say my Injen Lower ic pipe is for sale now haaaa
I had to cut my ETS LICP in order to use FP's compressor outlet pipe. Came out great and has a nice roll bead on it now

Why did you have to cut it? Is it the race pipe or std IX j pipe?

its the race pipe. its to long and it being a full 3" alot of lower pipes will not fit correctly unless you have br pipe with the ams top half like they did on mine bolted up fine no cutting etc. or as blinky stated cutting his ets pipe. either way more gases increase spool etc because if it but its a ***** to get on there and another headache to deal with

If you know someone selling a used 10.5 hotside let me know I missed one for 90 shipped
I can use my 10.5 but down time is a issue for me.
