2.75" intake pipe completed

**Niles** · Wednesday 16th November 2011, 01:21

Hi folks, for those who are interested here's the finished article. These can be made as before mentioned with, Red, Blue or Black silicon hoses. Jubilee clips are 100% marine quality stainless steel.
Can be made with or without the hole cut for the pre heater valve. ( my own personal intake pipe has no hole there. I use a catch tank).
The intake has a 6mm brass nipple for the BCS to attach to. The BCS use's 6mm inner diameter hoses.
This actual pipe is for Frobes2 (Scott) who wanted said pipe in black with the hole for the heater valve.

£79.99

As many can be made as required. However, at least 10 days from payment of 45 deposit, to good to go after the balance is paid. To get them like this takes alot more than you'd (or I did) think it would. Takes time.

ok, pictures of said pipes on the cars. Mine runs the standard air filter box (with a pipercross panel filter. And the other car runs an ITG filter with heatsheild (frobes2's car). I thought it best to show they will fit standard or modded filters.
Just not the best pictures. Mines grubby already. and as stated. when I made mine I couldn't be bothered to polish the weld out. Did scotts. Sure he'll pop along later to give a report on performance and quality of work etc. And...yes, snagged my finger on his car and the red blobs are my blood. No sweat, no tears, just a drip or 5 of blood. I'll live. lol.

Looks smart, will have to grab myself one of these in the new year

I'd have thought Scott would have wanted orange hoses to match his other ones..

**Volvostorm** · Wednesday 16th November 2011, 22:09

Unfortunately I didn't get the option of orange silicone hose but will be changing in the near future..

The quality of the pipe is better than I thought it was going to be and the welds are amazing ie. you can't see them, hoses and clips are all top quality and it looks awesome..

I'm one very happy customer.. I was about to buy an expensive one from the interweb but was looking at about £120 plus customs duty so for approx half price I've got one made out of the best materials and also made in the U.K.

I was going to take the car out this eve to test the noise, as I'm running a 15g with blanking plate and the BSR Optiflow air filter, but didn't so will re-post tomorrow with my findings..

I would highly recommend this upgrade..

Scott..
