Side Mount Intercooler / Intake Piping [Help]

[CONSIGLIERI]

Hello friends. First of all, I own a Eclipse 95 GST (2G)

The only mods are: Bov Dump Tube, BCS Restrictor, 1G BOV and K&N FIPK. All piping is still original (Intake and Intercooler)

I'm planning on buying the Side Mount Intercooler Piping and the Intake Pipe, but I have a question and i hope you can help me...

* Side Mount Intercooler

In most stores (ForcedPerformance, Dejon, etc...) they sell the piping flanged for X BOV.

Actually my car has a 1G BOV, so I would buy a 1G BOV flanged pipe.

Later if I decide to change my BOV for a HKS SSQV or TIAL... Will I need another pipe (at least the portion with the flange) or can I reflange the flange to fit the other bov ?

Also, when I buy a FMIC (much later) I will ned another set of pipes right ?

* Intake Pipe

If I buy a Dejon or INJEN intake Pipe, it will fit my stock T25. Later I will change the Turbo for a EVO III 16G. Will it still fit the turbo "hole" or can I adjust it with a Silicine coupler ???

Also, I will keep the original MAF;


Thanks !!!

You will need to cut and weld a new flange if you decide to get a new bov, which is not necessary at this point since the 1g bov is great at holding boost. I guess the easiest way to change bovs without cutting and rewelding would be to get an adapter for the one you want.


The intake pipe will still fit the evoIII 16g and remember to keep it recirculated

If you go with an intercooler kit, itll come with all the necessary piping. VRspeed Factory has a great kit, Im running it on my car and have no complaints. Plus it was bought at a pretty good price!

As agarc stated, you will need to weld a new flange on if you decide to change. Crushed, your 1g bov is good to about 22 psi so I wouldnt see much of a reason to change unless you REALLY care about what sound your car makes in between shifts.


Dejon is my SMIC piping of choice.

You won't have to upgrade the BOV for a while. I ran mine up to 28 psi on a 50 trim. Uncrushed.
