New option for our Upper IC Pipe

A little while back a customer had come to us and asked us to make our Upper IC pipe with a nipple to accept the factory BOV recirc tube. We did and since then he has apparantly been getting some good reviews on the piece. We have decided to offer this in our lineup. The piece will retail for $250 and is available Immedietly. BTW thanks to Tim for helping us with this

Just to let everyone know, the fitment was topnotch! Went on like a glove. For those of you that want to recirculate, you won't be disappointed! Thanks AMS!

Looks are not up to the lower one you sell or are the pic's of a prototype. Any chance of you making one that will work with stock airbox?

Hey Eric, that upper pipe looks like it would fit a stock air box. Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't that the stock intake pipe and stock MAF sensor? You would have to move around/remove the brackets for the stock air box and the boost line underneath, and the air box might need to sit a little higher, but it seems like it would all fit. Let me know if you ever want a tester, I'd definitely be willing to try it out, especially at a discounted price I'm sure lots of people like me have been looking for a short-routed UIC pipe that would work with the stock air box, especially those from the Vishnu community.

PS: I'm assuming that the stock air box might not work with your mini battery kit, since the battery looks like it's moved forward a bit to clear the bracket for the fuse box near it. No worries there though, I Dremeled out the stock tray to hold a mini battery with the stock air box in place.
