dsm bov piping
 

Alright, so the intercooler pipe that i have is 2.5" and was wondering if it would be a problem if i cut the pipe and clamped the dsm pipe in between the 2.5" pipe. I don't have a welder and don't want to weld on a flange. Will it be a problem for the air to travel down a 2.5" pipe into a 2" pipe and then out to the 2.5" pipe before the throttle body?

It doesnt sound too bad.. i dunno.. i just finish my first setup.. i have 2.5 pipe then like 2" ghetto ass "spa" pipe that goes into my lil side mount ic thats in the place of my old a/c radiator thing.... so it looks stock.. then i have a like hella small like 1.5" pipe that perfectly matches the cold side of the turbo.. SOunds ghetto but ya today we just got our pipe bender so i will finish it later.. but it feels like it spools great.... but i also am just happy im boosted...

Cant you cut out the BOV, put a hole in the 2.5 intake, then jbweld the fucker in? you dont want bottle necks.

Why not order a flange from BMC etc and just JB weld it to a small piece of pipe and then JB weld it to the charge pipe.JB weld works great for this type of thing.

Why order a flange when he already has one? I cut the flange off the stock J-pipe and welded it onto a 2.5" steel pipe.

:y, im sure theres got to be a local welder than can weld that onto a new pipe for you

Ya good point what was I thinking.

is it ever, nice job there

Re: dsm bov piping
 

have a local welder do it like someone else mentioned. i bet they dont charge you more then 5-10 bucks.

Re: dsm bov piping
 

I would like to have it welded, but since i already have everything i needed i just want to put it on and not waste more money on another flange. Is JB weld really that good? I see members on here using it like crazy on everything....i mean everything...oil pan, charge pipes, engine block. Will JB weld be able to hold the pressure?

Re: dsm bov piping
 

Yes it will hold the pressure. Just go to your local exhaust shop though and have them weld it up if you can. I did the same thing and they charged me $5.

Re: dsm bov piping
 

what were saying is that you can go get a tube of jb weld and do it, or get it done better at an exaust shop for the same price. your call.

Re: dsm bov piping
 

Werd, thats exactly what I did. Welded that bitch on some 2.5 piping then reenforced it with some JB.
