WHERE could i get a 180 U bend pipe for a CAI at i looked at lowes and i didnt see any there..Where could I find em?

You can get mandrel bent aluminum piping from JCWhintey, but it is kinda expensive. I am going to buy 5 feet of exhaust piping from a local muffler shop for 15 bucks, then just use a plumbers elbow...I think(some PVC elbow) and make my own for around 30 bucks, where as that is how much the piping from JCWhitney is when you add shipping. The aluminum piping heats up quicker that the exhaust pipe though. Your decision. Here's the link.

You sound like you don't have a clue what you're talking about...

If you are having trouble just interpreting the pipe sizes, I suggest you give up the project because you sound clueless.

now thats not the spirit guys :grin:

i really dont know how much you know about makin your own CAI, but before i looked for parts i got under the car and took out the stuff that needed to be removed first- that way i know what kinda parts i needed. if you have any questions, feel free to ask- we are just trying to protect you from wasting your cash before you know exactly what to do.

For one thing, we're not here to babysit him to go through every little piece of obvious details there are.

If he did what you just said, he shouldn't be even asking that question at all. There's nothing better than getting a visual of what you're planning to do. Being a lazy ass and ask for every piece of instruction on the internet just won't help one bit for yourself to learn.

Again, we're here to give suggestions, not to BABYSIT, and 91camryDX showed him EXACTLY what he was asking for.
