Ets lp2 licp

Very easy to install, Looks and fits great. Very noticeable with the butt dyno. Being that im not very mechanically inclined and i installed this by my self says wonders for them haha, only thing i noticed is that it doesnt have the hangars like the stock pipe so it seems like it might wobble a little, other than that i definatly reccomend.

+1.

I agree with your statements. Noticably quicker spool, especially during highway driving in 6th gear, I am always just about in boost, which is killing my highway mpg LOL.

I wish there were hangers too, it is only supported by the coupler connecting to the jpipe. Some people have made their own hanger for it and welded it on.

Thanks for the review! The reason we don't add a hanger to the pipe is each intercooler manufacture is a little different for inlet location, we wanted the pipe to have a bit of adjust ability to fit with most after market intercoolers

Thanks!

Michael

You should devise a bracket with enlarged bolt hole to use along with a bolt and large washer. A mounting bracket is one of the reasons I went for the Nisei pipes instead.

Mounting bracket or not the performance difference i can feel would make me buy this product again hands down.

ETS is quality yo.

I installed my LICP and UICP over the weekend. All I had to do is take out the front bumper (since my undertray was already off from my TBE install) and bam! A little wrenching here and there done. I like the fit. The quality is great. I will DIY my own hanger. how about a bunjee cord holding the pipe up? Too Ghetto?

I have never had a bracket on any LICP of the 4 I have had on my EVO. 1 fighter garage, 1 ETS Stock turbo, 1 ETS MS Turbo kit LICP, and current SS ETS Turbo Kit LICP

Never popped off a LICP under boost. EVER

Did you have to get rid of the oil cooler air duct when you install this?

If I'm not mistaken, I had to do it with my AMS piece.

I just installed my ETS LP2 a few weeks back and love it . I made sure clamps on both ends were tight , with it being as tight as I left it I'm the least bit worried of it moving around/ popping off under boost. And I didn't have to remove my cooling duct either , but a friend of mine with a AMS licp had to .

I got mine couple years ago and it's amazing. Love that little piece of polishing pipe, haha.
And i rather not have that hanger thingy because once the pipe is snug tight on the j-Pipe and Intercooler, you're golden.
