pvc/abs will melt under high temps(over 12psi).

you might be able to get by using it at 3-7psi.

Is this rubber(radiator hose type) piping your talking about?You can use radiator hosing for charge pipe use as long as its nothing over 10psi when you need stronger piping...

I would upgrade into some stronger piping if you plan on going big..You can come by some cheap piping in some classified sections or www.turbopiping.com .

Turbopiping.com has a good selection on ---- when turboing..But they over price their silicone couplings .


IMO the bov i would say shouldnt be no more than 18'' away from the tb..

I came across some Piping on www.honda-tech.com for $165.00 already welded..Jc whitney has some mandrel piping but I dont like the prices..

Best bet www.turbopiping.com ...
Or you can use your other piping for a little period of time unless its abs/pvc which I dont urge you to use.

Pvc might work as the above person said...

jcwhitney prices on mandrel steel bends are cheaper. turbopiping.com has the cheapest pricing on silicone couplings. if you found them cheaper than them let me know. i would like them cheaper if they exist.
