So I am thinking of getting a charge pipe before I get tuned, I was wondering if this is a good deal, and also will it fit properly, I have an Injen CAI so I figured might as well have a brand matched... all input appreciated!

Injen Intercooler Pipe Kit - Black - eBay (item 390288288121 end time Mar-12-11 19:45:49 PST)

 

love the injen charge piping! but no thats not a good deal. I got mine on sale from OTTP for under 200.

Injen Black Pressure Piping 08+ Chev Cobalt SS Turbo - Intercoolers & Hoses

mpx has it pretty cheap too. And you'd be supporting a vendor.

 

Okay, would I need the coupler upgrade? Also the link you sent is a chrome finish and so is ottp, i am wanting a black finish... is the install pretty easy?

 

Well the Example picture is chrome finish but it looks like they have black as well.

 

Bump- nobody wants to help a brother out with some questions!? Bet if i put some pix up of my wife. I'd get some responses lol!

 

only one way to find out

 

yes get the coupler upgrade

 

Not fair lol

So is the install for both pipes pretty easy? Also zzp makes one, which is better zzp or injen?

 

Look into ottp charge piping you get upper and lower for 300

 

a catless down pipe would be way more beneficial to your car

 

I'm getting my catless dp in two weeks or so, i just wanna get everything on before i tune so i dont have to retune,

 

I have brand new hahn upper and lower charge pipes for sale at $ 250

 

^ I know Hahn is good stuff but thats more then zzps and injens, but thanks anyways.

 

If you read the description it was for the black injen cp. mpx offers the coupler upgrade but I bought my coupler and tbolt's off siliconeintakes.com for less than 45. Install is easy but can take a while worming the tubes in and out. also you want to make sure they are tight...well with tbolts its easy, otherwise youll have a blow off tube and thats no fun on the hwy....

 

yeah i saw that later after i posted, can you send me a link to the site you got your coupler and tbolts? i know you said siliconintakes.com but can you get the exact page for me? lol im new to this crap so the easier you can make it for me the better!!

thanks!

 

I think I found it, it's the three inch coupler right?

 

We have the BEST price on the Injen charge pipe www.TurboTechRaicng.com

 

yup yup 3 inch. You need

couplers
1 x 2.0"
2 x 2.5"

2 x 2.0" tbolts
4 x 2.5" tbolts

 

Thanks! However the one that modern performance has is 30 dollars more with the lower pipe?

 

So I need 2 2.5in couplers and 1 2in? And six tbolts all together?

 

no

 

Injen is TOP/HOT pipe only.
Injen only makes a top/hot pipe, no lower is made/included, and it is really not needed. Check the part number. It takes 2 pipes to make a "hot side". Both are used on the hot side.

You get nothing more for $30

 

I didn't know that! Thanks! You got my business! I'll be ordering this friday!

 

yup

2.0" is at the turbo
then the injen goes to 2.5" diameter.
At about the turn to go into the hole of the wheel well it is cut
2.5" coupler there to connect the 2 injen pieces
then
2.5" coupler at the injen to IC

You need 2 tbolts per 1 coupler.

 

Thanks Vibe

@TTR.... I just ordered the Injen Charge Pipe from you guys! thanks for letting me know, saved me a few bucks!

Damn couplers and tbolts added up quick with shipping lol
