A price quote for the items you would like to purchase:

4 2.5" 90 degree $13.00 $52.00
1 2.5" U bend $13.50 $13.50
1 2.5" 45 degree/20" leg $22.50 $22.50
2 3" 45 degree $14.00 $28.00

Shipping: $21.99

Total: $137.99

Thank you for your time. rdelat2116@aol.com.

The 45 with a 20" leg was NICE! Comes off the throttle body with plenty of length to cut wherever I wanted. Same with the 3" 45's I used for my air filter turbo intake Set it up like a stock greddy kit.

On crack? Thats a good price for all that I bought. If you notice I went with 2.5" which is a little more expensive, the 45 with a 20" leg bumped the price up a litle more and of course you really don't need 2 3" 45's. Just look at the price PER PIECE. Very good prices and yes, the bends are very nice This may be HMT but not everyone here has to be straight up ghetto fabbing their ---- cutting every single corner possible. Sorry I didn't realize this was whocandoahomemadeturbosetupthecheapest.com

I will be redoing all of my piping in aluminum. Now that i know my neighbor welds alum. He welded brackets on my front mount for 5 bucks! If I would have known this I'd go with aluminum if you have a connection or a reputable welder at a decent price. Keep in mind steel charge pipes weigh up to 20+lbs total. Mild is easier to weld, stainless wont rust and aluminized steel will work fine to. I think its personal prference. I got mild steel as I live in FL and will be painting the pipes anyways.
