UIC pipes with a T25

[Scott95GSX]

Hello,
I'm picking up my 95 GSX in a couple of days and am planning to turn up the boost to around 15 PSI. I'm gonna be sticking with the stock T25 for a while and I understand that I need to "upgrade" to a 1G BOV since the 2G BOV sucks so much... I know I atleast need an adapter for the 1G BOV but I was wondering if I should bother buying a UIC pipe for a T25. Am I really gonna notice a difference with the stock turbo? Also, I believe I read somewhere that a UIC interferes with the stock airbox, is this correct?

I'm buying a 2 year warranty with my car so I'd like it to remain relatively stock so I can return it to stock condition pretty easily if I need any warranty work done. It's a 3rd party warranty (not Mitsubishi) so they'd probably work on it anyways, but better safe than sorry...

thanks, Scott

Granted I don't have one on my car. BUT I did put one on my freinds GST and we dyno'd it afterwords, it did make a difference. Plus if you need to make it back to stock it's really easy!

I heaven't heard anything bad about upgrading the upper I/C. in fact, according to the upgrade sequence that both DSMtuners and buschur racing list, the upper I/C pipe upgrade should be one of the first ones you should do. I ordered mine from Dejon tool the l and s pipe cost me $180. should have them put on by the end of the week, so hopefully I can provide more insight for ya-phoenix

Yes it is worth it, and most of them will get in the way of your stock airbox, but if you are planning on turning up the boost, that airbox shouldn't be there anyway Dont forget the boost guage.

yea its worth upgrading the IC pipes.. just follow the upgrade path..

like mentioned.. if u want more psi and ur going to mod ur car.. that airbox isnt gonna be there for long

i got my filter, upper ic pipes, hks ssqv bov.. and wow the car felt so much stronger than stock..

i just ordered a dave brode pipe for my 97 gs-t. he replied to my emails really quickly. i got the part that goes from the intercooler to the bov with all hardware. it cost me $65 (in my opinion the best deal on 2g uicp & trust me i searched). i already had the 1g bov, that can be had easily from the trader, classified ads here or ebay.
