Just after somr advice. Ive gone for a rotated gt30. I have a fmic off my old setup which obv wont fit but I will be using tbe same fmic with pipework. Noe I just wanted to know is how can I bend the pipework. What can I use. Or is there any specialist places who can bend the pipework for me on the cheap dont want to be paying silly money. Any advice is appreciated. Thanks

Would chopping it and welding bends be any good? Or just best to get a whole piece made. Its only from the turbo to the wing side. The rest will stay the same as im not going reverse Inlet
Hayward and Scott can do it for you but so can must fabricators,mandrel bending is nice well made pipes with welded pieces once done right looks nice if your running standard position inlet manifold should be easier and maybe you could recycle your existing pipe work.SJ.
The only thing that you have to decide is where you want the pipe routed,over the rotated turbo set up or under both give different looks in your engine bay,and where to route your filter and header tank will most proberly need repositioning,quite a few things to think about really.SJ.

Try ASH (auto silicon hoses) for your alloy intercooler pipework they do different sizes and bends mark them up and cut them to suit your application then take them to your local fab shop and they can weld them up for you,similar to this

Hmm cheers lads. Im thinking like bannys. Looks easier. Obv going parallel so I can route the pipe underneath the inlet and leave my header tank where it is. Saves me shifting things about
