Well to be fair dejon's stuff is mostly if not all mild steel and it is powdercoated. All of my stuff is Stainless or aluminum which is much more expensive to start with. I can probably beat dejon's price if I do it in mild and even more if you get it coated yourself. Non coated I think I'd be able to do them for around 100 or so. I need to call around to see what it costs to powdercoat these and i'd be able to give you a price coated.

Not to be negative, but I've heard bad things about Dejon parts from many racers. If he can make some actual quality parts, then I'd be willing to pay extra for them. Also, what about a set of maybe 3" pipes in a blow-thru setup?

I could do 3" intake pipes for blow through. I would need a test car to make sure it will fit ok which for the time being I have sitting at my shop. After I get the examples set up and welded together i'll order up some 3" pipe and do a blowthrough setup.

Mike's a jack of all trades he's great with these kinds of things. I'm pretty excited to see one of these for the NA 3S which i'd love to buy from him.

Very true but need one at my shop for a day so I can fit one. It will be nice to take a look so I know what kind of stuff I need to order up.

I'll be running IPS's TD05 kit, not 3SX's, so I don't know if there will be much difference in fitment, but it might be something to consider. Also, I'd take those 3" pipes in aluminum. Just shoot me a price when you get one figured out.

Yeah if you want to stop by that would be fine. I can take some quick measurements and get an idea of what it will look like in the end.

I think the pipes I put together was for a ips tdo5 kit. They ended up fitting just like stock ones. Do you have a fmic or still on the sidemounts. Also do you want to do them with just silicone coupler reducers or do you want the pipe to reduce down to the turbo inlet size.
