Hey guys, I was just wondering on your HKS Type-S FMIC kit (Part # HK 1301-RT083), which pipes are those that actually come with the $899 kit.
I bought my car with this kit installed, and whoever installed it flipped the top pipe around and when they got to the pipe that goes into the IC, they chopped it up, shortening the pipe and removing the bead welds. Unfortunaltey, I blow couplers at 10% throttle now. I think they used JB Weld or glue or something in there, and it held for a while, but now, it's done.
Anyways, if I can get away with not buying those other pipes for I think 150 bucks, that would be great, but I need to make sure the pipes that come with the $899 kit are infact the one I need to replace. The pipe off the turbos, and the next pipe are fine, it's that last pipe that goes to the IC that I hope the $899 kit will replace. Lemme know so I can order and get my car that has been down longer than I've owned it back on the road, lol. Thanks!
