radiator hose connector pipe?
Is there a plastic tube similar to the "T" but without the water temp sensor bunge, so I can cut my hose and rotate the bend for my custom fmic setup?
<-- without the nipple/bunge thing

Greddy makes a radiator hose adapter that will do what you want. It has a threaded hole for a temp sender, but you could easily put a bolt in it to seal it. They run about $30, and are available thru any Greddy dealer. The correct size is 38mm. If your radiator hose is old, it will be swollen, and may not fit well with the adapter. If it is old, get a new one.

Yeah, that's what I was thinkin (plug the hole), thanks Adam.
Hey (Jason) bro, WaAaZzZuP? What a freekin headache! I bought the Apexi used but never installed but the money I saved went to the custom install ...and then some! I didn't want the radiator horizontal because it would stick dow about 6" lower then the sway bar. I have at an angle like the Blitz setup, which I was originally going to buy. The brackets on the fludyne are welded on, had to get rid of those. Now the battery doesn't fit with either Jeff's battery tray or the kit the FMIC comes with (relocation time). I took all last week off to finish the car but lost the bet at work that id be driving it in (they better not pick sushi) and now I gotta buy lunch.
Anyhow, I have a new set of stock radiator hoses but they are bent wrong. The bottom one just needs to rotate at one end. The top one can prolly be a strait hose curved line a "U". I could allways buy the copper flex hose to.
