I used the cheap Bomez eBay kit, but only used the pipe for the secondary inlet. You can cut the first one to fit, but it seemed to be more effort than it was worth for me:

M2 made a set of hardpipes as an option for the intake but I'm not sure if anyone still makes them.

Matty, let us know if you find a set and if there is any cutting you had to do to make it fit. I too have an M2 intake, and I would like a nice set of hard pipes as well.

the M2 hard pipes work...lol

the ebay ones work as well. you might want to cut a little bit off the one for the front turbo to make the install easier.

currently i'm using an M2 hardpipe for the front turbo, and a bomez (ebay) hardpipe for the rear turbo. can't really see the m2 pipe but here's how it looks:

ah well on the street i keep the boost down..closer to .85 bar (12-13psi). i really push it for the dyno.

my twins are pretty frankenstein. i couldn't believe they made 380. when i bought the car the front turbo was on it's way out. i bought a set off of a forum member that also had a bad rear turbo. once i got them i swapped his rear chra for my front one, also ported the manifolds. a few weeks later when i pulled the whole motor i decided to make the twins 'rich mans' non-seq. as of recently my front turbo is just starting to leak oil so i think i'm coming to the crossroads (again) - going single or repairing the twins again. pretty sure i'll just go single this time though...

6-7 years. you are lucky!
