volvo "up pipe" for civic/CRX guys
 

Just wanted to make a thread about this up-pipe from a volvo that I'm using. Its off one of those volvos that came with the 2.4L and .42/.48 T3 garrett turbo. I used a right angle and its up pipe to make a PERFECT up pipe From the TB to the pass. fender-well ( like a cold air intake ). Not only does it fit perfect, but its at least 2.75'' piping. If you happen to see an old ass volvo in the yards check for the up-pipe also. Hopefully I'll get some pics of my finished car soon and you guys can see it. But it worked so well, I had to make a thread about it...

bringing this thread back since I have a link to some pics (FINALLY!!! ).

The volvo that this pipe comes off of is that same one that has the adjustable by-pass valve on it. And giant radiator looking IC that has plastic end-tanks.

Again, it took car of the everything from where the DSM side mount ICs could/would go to right before the T/B ( I just added a 90 degree bend). Its the perfect bends and perfect diamitor ( of course the battery has to be relocated ).

Pics of the IC pipe set-up on my car are at:

sounds good....does it come with the duct tape for the tb?

I had hear stories of the home depot rubber couplers expanding and bustering ( sooner or later ). The "duct tape" is just to stop the rubber from expanding smart ass.
