im having a hard time finding a intercooler piping kit for the t25, i got quotes for $500 jus for the lower piping, which is way to much being that i already have the entire upper intercooler piping already running with the stock intercooler.

My question is do any companies make a kit to work with the t25 or how will i know if on ebay the kits they have for the gst will work with the t25 and not designed for upgraded turbos.

So this is a LICP for the stock sidemount? If so, Dejon has one for $65 that bolts up to a T25 or T28. They also have models for j-pipe turbos:

Are you looking for piping for a FMIC to work with your T25, or piping for a SMIC with your T25?

If you're just looking for a hard 'S' pipe, Dejon Powerhouse makes some nice stuff.

edit: kenamond, you're just too quick for me. :)
 
sorry guys i forgot to leave out that i want to get rid of my sidemount and i already have the upgraded piping for the stock intercooler...i should be able to use some of that for the FMIC upgrade correct? i am having a hard time finding a FMIC piping kit to work with the t25
 
yeah i see alot ebay intercooler packages and i have no prob with buying one, but when i ask all the sellers on ebay is the FMIC made to work with the t25. the t25 faces the opp. direction as most turbos, there for the pipe coming from the turbo needs to have a sharp angle in order to point the piping in the correct direction. again my prob is finding a kit that is made for a turbo when its outlet faces the passenger side. my quote to get a custom lower kit for the FMIC has been around $500 which is to much because all i need is the lower piping kit to go with the FMIC i already have the upper....get it?
 
Or if you know someone who's great at welding aluminum, you can cut off the elbow, turn it around the other way, and weld it on facing the driver's side. Many DSMer's have found this to work well. The other option is to just make it a downfiring turbo, much like a 20g, but... you know.. without the power. :)
 
With the ebay kit that chicagoavenger posted, you don't need anything else extra. To fit it to the stock turbo, use the 90* elbow the kit comes with to point it downward, then trim your stock lower IC hose to extend it to the right, where it meets the hard piping going into the core. If you want hard piping, just take your trimmed hose and go to a muffler shop and match it up.
 
ok NO SKILLZ, i follow u on the 90* elbow that i will use but i didnt not see a kit on that link for an intercooler on ebay for $295. also i have a hard lower IC piping that is "s" shaped like the pic above but im not following how i should cut it. maybe once i get in there ill understand...im a visual guy. do most ebay FMIC for 2g Gst's come with the 90* elbow i need to make it work? 295 was a perfect price...ill check the link again to see if i can find it
