ok for my turbo bug project coming up i need to know where i could get pipes mad that come out of the turbo splits into 2 and go oposite directions into the head? intake pipes. how much would most shops cost to make this? or would it be better for me to just get the piping and me make it my self yousing like clamps and what not?

no idea what you are asking, but heres what i think you are askin. turbo pipes?

you mean the turbo cold side pipes, i assume since you mention the head and then intake. you can get aluminum piping from ebay cut and use silicon hoses. or be pimp and get pie cut welds custom made. less efficient than mandrel but 300x pimpness.

You are looking for a Y pipe type deal? I know VR4's have them, and you could get one on eBay and adapt it to your needs.

i think JCwhitney sells exactly what you want..

a few rednecks used to live down the road from me, and one had a porsche motor in his bug.. the other had the pipes like your talking about
