K serie engines turbo pipes

[babyblueMX3]

mitmaks:
bending the pipes with a machine (bent crush) reduce the inner diameter in the corner of the piping and this causes restriction in the exhaust system and this is the last thing you want with a turbo..

Dan: Dan what can of prices are we looking here, just some mild steel piping to keep to cost down, we a intercolled set-up...i know you can't give a price since you don't have much infos right now but just an estimate so people can know what to expect...I am definitly in, even if some bulk buy doesn't happen..I'll send you my parts this summer (turbo, bov, wastegate)

If you think 750 is too much , you have no idea what your talking about , till i 'm done cutting welding ,fitting and touching them up i have 3-4 days in one kit , thats with 2 ppl working .
BTW if your think of buying a tube bender to bend exhuat piping , good luck as all you'll end up with is collasped pipes .

I can;t give an exact quote without having a car here and a set compelted but i can imagine they'll be price simlar to the mx6 ~750 - 1000~
low end being non ic and high bein with an ic , but if we can get a 5 or more order at once i can probally do it a little cheeper , I'd have to go over the numbers .
I got my home pc working again , and just need to pay my isp so they hook me back up , should be with in a day or 2 .

Wow, Dangerous Dan is on MX-3.com....cool.

[babyblueMX3]

man i would offer you my car if I weren't 8 hours from you ..please someone has to donate his car for couple of days this spring/summer so we can have pipes made

[Dangerous Dan]

honestly i'd like to purchase a mx-3 for my self but with my financial situation its not gonna happen .
But i can dream , i made my 97 Probe gt go 12.965 @ 108.27 with a kl-03 and juice , and 14.0 @ 97 with a ze , i can just imagine what i can do with lighter mx-3 .

i ment mandrel tube bender, can be made at most exhaust shops around here by request for way cheaper, just gotta know what you want and size, etc

I'm only 2 hours away or so and I'd love to donate my car, but I don't got the dough...unless everyone wants to chip in of course.

there are very few exhaust shops that have mandrel benders as they cost upwards of 20g's .
the do style of bending that may look good but does'nt hold its raduis the whole way through the bend .Also you won;t be able to mutilple bends due to closness of promixity of the bends , it has to be bent then cut and wedled together .
Honestly if you know of a muffler shop that has a true mandrel bender that will do it all that cheep then definatly go for it , but honestly i seroisly doubt you'll find one as everyone i've been to wants at least 4 bills for just a custom exhaust and thats only 3-4 bends .

From the looks of it no one is gonna be ready untill late spring anyways , so maybe you coudl save the dough , or maybe everyone could chip and extar couple of bucks for your trouble , i dunno we can porbally work somthin out .
I betting the mx-6 hot primaries will definatly fit with little modding of the turbo placement , but i'm not real sure as i have'nt seen a mx-3 engine bay in a few years .

Where at Mitmaks. We live in the same state. I'd like to know because all of my piping cost is pretty consistant with Dangerous Dan's for Mandrel Bent tubing. Hell, my exhaust alone was about $400 for mandrel bent.
