pvc pipe?

[chadkassinger]

OK so my family owns a plumbing buisness so I literly have 1000s of feet of every size of PVC pipe you can think of along with all the elbows and connectors are there any creative ideas peaple have Come up with in the past? Just curious I'm all about buying good named brand parts but if there's any good things that have been made with PVC let me know

Few years ago, honda kids where playing pcv pipes off as roll cages for show. HOW COOL!

 

[chadkassinger]

Sounds like something they would those peaple would do.... pshh Honda peaple, who would have thought..

When I switch to SD (speed density) I might not recirculate the BOV, therefore have the unused recirc. fitting on the intake. I was going to take some kind of pipe with acoustic quality to it and route to inside the car to see how obnoxious the turbo inlet is when is it's flowing some good air.

If you've ever driven a semi with the air cleaners mounted on each side near the windows, it sounds... just fantastic.

Used to have intake pipe made of 4" thin wall PVC pipe. Still trying to find a cheap piece of 12" pipe to make a subwoofer box out of.

 

[chadkassinger]

Subwoofer box is an awesome idea .

Ship some to me. I need connectors and pipe of all sizes, I use PVC pipe all the time for building sets and structures for video shoots.

i used it for a cheap fix on my fmic piping. there's articals online that show people making their entire piping out of pvc

 

[valon24]

I've seen a little trailer made out of pvc. How about a car port? Make a few and sell them =).

PVC tubular exhaust manifold.

Now get to it.

 

[LandoAWD]

Here's an idea; use it where it belongs, not on a car.

You're welcome.

 

[chadkassinger]

hey I was just looking for ideas and ill get to the manifold build im not looking to build my axles out of the pvc or anything. I told a buddy about the pvc sub box an he actually is part owner of a audio shop he said he might try it. i might try that pvc roll cage just paint it black.. no one will ever notice





jk about the roll cage

x2 People on a budget do their whole intake/fmic piping out of pvc

 

[91-GS]

Or you can be awesome like the Blue Man Group and build a drumset out of PVC.

If that PVC sub box will get built, would like to know how it performs.

 

[Bo0sTdTsI]

I only use it fo plumbing things, besides that, that's how I started my collecto for my tubular mani, played with the pvc pipe til I found the right cuts for the flange.

Lmao. I hope the charge and operating temp are less than ~200F. PVC gets pretty pliable around there...

These people should not be modifying cars if their budget is this tight.

There's "frugal" and then there's just "dumb".

 

[valon24]

If you put stickers on the PVC, you will be fine.

It may be dumb but if it works and they like it why not? i wouldnt do it but hey ive seen worse redneck rigging .

 

[Colt4G63 also]

You can make wind turbine blades out of it.

everyone has an opinion. but it has worked fine for me. no stress or melting or even boost leaks. weird that something that is many times cheaper and barely decreases effecientcy is considerd "dumb" in your eyes

 

[TylerLorenz]

I've seen a few people use it for intercooler piping. If you are that hard off, it's not the worst idea ever... Some PVC is rated up to 45psi! WHOOHOO.

But still.. Leave that stuff in the basement where it belongs.

You could use the plastic to make canards or fender flares. It would take some plastic welding though.
