Yeah its all a mold. You see how the weave is going with the spoke. Thats for strength and has to be perfectly straight or it cold or will break. What supports the weight is the actual carbon fiber but without the resin the carbon fiber would be worthless and vice versa The carbon fiber supports the most weight. I learned that in airplane school.

spend tree fitty on some ceramic paint and coat the metal pipes.

btw, I've got like 12 feet of that flexible exhaust pipe crap, think it will work for the bends if I wrap it in duct tape or something? I mean it holds exhaust pressure fine and it's only 8psi.

This is one of those products you hear about but will never be produced. There's way too many variables to make a universal CF pipe kit for custom turbo kits.


The only way for this to be an actual marketable products would be to make replacements for Drag and Rev hard kits which nobody on this site owns or would at least admit to owning
