Iam installing an Evo 8 FMIC this weekend, and Iam gonna do the piping my self. I want to run a short route piping set up. I have a 16g with a 14b j pipe and I was planning on buying some U bends off of summit. I need some advice from those who have made their own piping on a 2G. I was thinking of just buying 3 2 inch U bends for the hot side, and 3 2.5 inch U bends for the cold side. If anyone can help I would appreciate it.
 
What help are you looking for exactly? I would go with 2.5" for upper and lower.
 
Ok I will buy 2.5 inch U bends for each side. I just wanted to know how many U bends it would take to make all the piping. Or any tips from people who have made their own piping.
 
i would get 3 of the 2.5" u bends. get them at 6" radius if thats an option also, if it doesnt specify the radius, then dont worry about it.
 
I have another question, when I install the front mount will I need to worry about the safety airbags if I have to tamper with the bumper?
 
I replaced the bumper and installed the fmic without disconnecting the battery. Granted I forgot to, but they didn't go off. I believe airbags go off a system of inertia, that is you have to stop really suddenly, for them to go off, rather than impact.
