Message Also for sale are the four main hardpipes that someone will need when doing a turbo swap to their car. In stock form, these sell for roughly $300, and go for MUCH more if bought from Z1 motorsports. Mine are far from stock and I have converted the barb fittings on them to 4AN fittings so you can use 4AN hose for the vacuume lines. Also, they were chromed for around $400 (Do amazing work). Also the pipes and brackets for the stock recirculators I ground off, and made so you'd never even know they were there before. This looks better, reduces unecessary weight, and smoothes air flow through the piping. These are mint, and have not been used since the work has been finished. A LOT of money has been put into these, and the new owner will love them.

There is ONE flaw on the pipes, and that is that when the chromers polished the pipies for chroming, they actually put a TINY pin hole in one of the pipe right where I welded a plate to cover the original location of the stock recirc valves. When I pressure tested the pipes I found this and had to reweld over the tiny pinhole. I then resprayed the area to cover the weld and protect it instead of have the chromers redo it since this area of the pipes can NOT been seen. We all know how picky I am...but since this can't be seen I didn't worry about it. Besides this, the rest of the pipes are totally 100% perfect, and like I said you can not see this painted part once installed. If however for some reason, you do really want this to be rechromed, they will rechrome the pipes for me...you will just have to wait a week or two for them to get it done.

Anyways, these are the perfect pipes for someone doing aTT conversion or someone wanting to upgrade from stock, and have the BOVs located up near the throttle bodies instead of in the stock location.

Price is $400 SHIPPED

Picture showing 4AN fitting installed in car. These can be used for any vacuume line including BOV solenoid fittings.

4AN outside of car. Taken earlier today. I pressure tested ALL of these pipes once the fittings were installed up to 60psi.

Picture shows two of the pipes, Including the painted one. Once again, this part will never been seen as you can see where it is located at, but if you want the entire thing rechromed they will do it for me since they made the pin hole in it.

Other two pipes.

All of them.
