hi guys,

I'm going ahead to attempt custom building my intercooler charge pipes and maybe even my 3inch exhaust system.

Will a 780 x 210 x 75mm intercooler will fit into the original CRX MKII bumper?

Finally found a company in my area that does stainless steel bends. To fit the above intercooler onto a crx, what sort of bends will i need and quantity? Can you give me the Center line radius of the bends?

What is the recommended thicknesss to use on a 3inch exhaust setup? Is 16gauge sufficient?

Are there any possiblities of getting hold of a 1990 crx exhaust floorplan so i can send it to the shop for bending? They can plot the axis and bend the exhaust system in one go without the car.

thanks!

 

I used 2.5" charge pipes and exhaust with my set up. I used:

1) 45 bend
5) 90 bends
1) 180 bend
and a bunch of couplers.. this was for my tyrus fmic

 

im pritty shure i just bought 2-180 bends, 2-45 bends,and 2 90 bends to start out with. every setup is going to be diff. so just start fitting and cutting ur pipes to make them fit how u want.


16 gauge should be good enough. my dp is pritty thin. less weight on the manifold .

lost on this one. but u say u want a 3" exhaust system..do u plan on running a 3" dp also? if so i would not attempt to make the dp with out using the car as a guide. the reason being is, it is in a crx,and they have front cross members that like to get in the way of dp's especial 3" ones.
