    Default Custom intercooler piping

    I have a 94 civic ex and I would like to know if anyone knows who makes custom intercooler piping. I want to be able to hide all of my turbo piping inside of the stock intake plumbing and hide the blow off valve in the stock airbox. Also if anyone could guess how much it will cost to make the piping. Just a estimated one

    I've never really thought of that idea. I guess the IC piping would have to be pretty small to fit inside the factory plastic piping since it's only like 2".

    Yeah I don't plan on having that big of IC piping. Im going to measure how large the stock airbox piping is. When you pop the hood I want people to think there is little to none evidence that the car has been modified. I want the fuel pressure gauge to be the only under-hood clue that its boosted. I have a 2.5'' exhaust with a 2'' outlet

    I don't want to 'sport' the turbo. I want a sleeper not just by looking at the outside I want it to still look like it when I pop the hood
