AGP doesnt have the parts im looking for anymore. I guess I took too long getting the money together, but i need a bigger front mount and both charge pipes. Im gonna call agp this weekend and see if they can hook me up.. but if not ill need custom parts anyone know who could make these?

Lol... Damn that was a detailed post............ Anyways try Mainstream Performance. They did a gorgeous job on my mr2 exhaust. And I'm sure they could weld up whatever you're lookin for.

I was thinking about that, I hear good things about thier work, I want the parts to be as good or better than agp's because according to the other skittle van enthusiasts the agp hard pipes were the shit

lol skittle van= pt cruiser gt most people like it when they see it but not many people build them (most likely why agp no longer makes the stuff i need) Im just trying to get a few supporting mods out of the way.. I have some cool plans for it

I have also heard good things about Mainstream...
However, I would throw Mahdavi Motorsports in the mix of shops to talk to. I have seen a lot of awesome work come out of there. They have worked on a few of my cars (Eclipse, Mazda3, and Miata), and come with a great recommendation.

Dang I did a decent tig job for my first time.. heh a little more practice and it would have looked better.. but what do you expect for a newbie tigger with no gas i might add ;)

Not to be harsh as I'm sure it works great but those are some ugly welds. You can get just about any 2.5 inch charge piping and that is aluminum and have someone fabricate the bends and welds. Almost any install shop can do it, and if they can't go somewhere else.

hey dude it looks good
the bends are sharp and it seems like it would be fairly easy flowing in there.
keep up the practicing welding
