Where to buy Fmic pipe

I currently have a greddy knock off Fmic kit. Everything actually fits nice except the pipe that runs by the power steering pump. Anyone have the same style kit that bought another pipe that worked and matched up pretty well? I'm not getting rid of pwr steering so I'm trying to work around it. Thanks

it will have to be a custom pipe. you only need a few bends to make it. problem is the pipe needs to be compressed to fit beside the power steering pump.

strangely enough even the real Greddy front mount kits fit like *** through that same spot and elbow angles are not quite right.

That's what I was afraid of. I can make it fit but it rubs. I've had it on for a year or so just trying to get everything right for when ems is finished up

i usually chop almost an inch off where it meets the throttle body elbow, otherwise they push the **** in on the brake reservoir. it will always itch on the power steering pump almost no matter what you do.

I'll do that to get it off the brake resivour. I guess I'll have to live with it rubbing the power steering.

You can lower the power steering unit and bracket,without too much hassle.
