Good Fit?
Anyone ever use these? Are they a good fit?

They look nice, cant beat the price
|
Guess no one has. Just bought them, we'll see how they fit.
|
|
The consensus is that the silicone couplers split at high temperatures.. the clamps are too big.. and the primary turbo pipe doens't fit right..
The ones I bought off Huybiz fit well, silicones are holding up, and the clamps are a perfect fit.. |
I bought those as well, but also ordered sparco fibreglass woven silicone couplers, and am waiting for them in red (backordered) and haven't tried to put them on with the blue couplers...
|
They don't work with any of the cold air boxes or stock air box. Quesiton comes up every month or so...
|
I got them and the top part fit fine with no prob what so ever, the bottom.... well it didn't fit so great. I still haven put it on but it look like it will go on with some elbow grease.
It should fit the stock air box just fine (at least the top part) and lets face it if your using the stock air box you cant even see the botom pipe. I use an old school greddy intake. I think it was worth the money. If you cant get it to fit you can sell it back on ebay! |
those air intake pipe are crap. DONOT buy that. If you can refund it, Just do it!!!!
I have one of those. they do not fit well on FDs. |
i have the pipes as well.And yes there were some serious issues with the kit.
The primary turbo pipe sucks for fitment.The secondary is a good fit.The couplers arent even silicone.I think its just blue rubber as they have hardened up already from the engine bay heat.And to top it off the couplers are too big.I was able to use two of them but had to buy some smaller ones for the rest of the install.Im seriously thinking of buying the rx7 store ones.But 200 bucks for those two pipes is kinda steep. |

I bought them when they were first on ebay for $$$ ouch! They worked fine for me since I just attached K&N 3" cylinder air filters to them an d made my own heat shield. The reason why the bottom pipe doesn't fit with pipe's the cold air boxes is because the bend is not tight enough. You might be able to get a longer couple to make it work.
|
its not the air filter.its the bottom pipe that sucks for fitment.
|
I think im going to pick up the rx 7 store ones since everyone agrees that they fit perfectly.And I have the blitz intakes.
|
I hope they fit well cause I'm getting a set coated with ceramic/aluminum.
|
Yeah mine fit fine since I'm running open K/N filters with a custom heat shield. No box set up for me.
|
Quick wow did you make the heat shield pettits suck.

Thanks Mahjik
|
I got 'em and they work great with the custom cold air intake I made using the stock air box. Mine was a tight fit and they are more like a rubber coupler not silicon. Who actually had some that crack from the heat? Mine are fine.
|
I made that damian heat shield as well, its awesome and way cheaper than any intake you could buy.
|
i used these pipes with 3" k&N and my own heat shield...it was fine
