Yeah I have the tri-point ast, it is hollow also except it has the rubber restriction piece in the bottom nipple like the factory unit. Not sure what this accomplishes but I haven't had any problems with it.

That's cool Mako but no thanks.

Hmm, well the reason I ask is that I used to own a 3rd gen, until it got stolen. It got stolen by the guy that Failed to Appear in court on me. I had the satisfaction of arresting of him. Anyways, I didn't want to waste 150 bucks to find out it was just hollow. I had the plastic one, and I looked inside of it (b4 it was thrown away) but it was too dark with a bunch of ridges and couldn't make out. Well the whole point is I have an s13 now and will be building some performance parts.

oil pans
ast
purge tanks
catch cans

For example: I will be constructing an oil pan that holds extra oil will have a couple extra pieces no one produces right, nothing fancy. But this will be great for turbo owners and going turbo owners. The reason I didn't ask the 240sx owners, is cuz they are way behind the curve on alot things. I think alot of it is cuz the Hondumb boys are invading that market like crazy bcuz of doriftoing.

Thanks
