1 pc Upper intercooler pipe

Hi guys,

I am looking for a 1pc upper intercooler pipe for my Evo X. Preferably in matt black but not a must.

This can be new or used, as long as it is in good condition and comes with all rubber connections and clamps.

Nisei do one buy I cant find them online anymore.

Let me know if any of you have one to sell

Glen

Nisei had a nice complete 1-piece pipe, and it was priced very well, with couplers and T-bolts..

I don't know if they are still around tho. I had to text them to get an answer a couple years ago. Nice guys, just a smaller company than most of them..

Thanks ugakirk. I can't find them online anymore.

The other company are Muse. But I also can't find them either anymore:

I can purchase one through VR speed for new but its a little pricey..

^I'm actually running a ams uicp. So can't comment on that. I've heard nothing but good things about kaizen though...

I agree...very nice product. However, when sent to Europe the price is amounts to $320. I prefer to spend that sort of cash on parts which have a higher impact on my BHP. A used UCIP is as good as a new one...its a pipe at the end of the day.

For low-cost 1-piece UICP I'd say the MUSE you mention and Synapse UICP. The Synapse seems to have a mounting tab at the front radiator locating tab which the MUSE is missing - some say it doesn't matter. At this point, if it fits, and both seem to have a history of doing so. Pick the one you feel most comfortable with. You get a smoother flow and more reliability from having hard parts replace rubber so do it and keep it cheap unless you are looking for bling.
