Greddy turbo kit, no intake pipe...help!
 
I have everything I need for my used turbo kit (goes on 98 Civic EX) except for the intake pipe that goes from where the waterbox use to be, up to the intake manifold. I have gone everywhere asking if they supplied intake pipes that would fit and no one seems to have one. EBay does not seem to have what I am looking for unless I pay $250.00 plus shipping. Is there anyone who can help me with this? Any help at all would be appreciated, thank you.

you can use exaust piping crush bend or even ABS pipe the black pvc pipe...just make the bends according to how you want to route your pipes..like a cold air intake..

I take it crush bend means I can bend it with my bare hands? That'll make me feel manly
