Default FMIC piping?

hey guys, the guy i bought my a4 from is giving me a pretty nice fmic for free, although im not sure what brand it is. anyways i was just wondering where you guys got the piping for yours and how much did it run? are there kits to buy or did you just have an exhaust shop make them for you?
thanks for the help

In you sig it says "ARP Stage 3 Turbo".... Shouldn't it be APR? And if so, their kit already has the APR FMIC installed, to be able to call it a "Stage III Turbo"... Maybe I'm wrong?

sorry it was a typo, my friend made the banner for me. it has the turbo in it, the guy just never got the bigger fmic in. he said it still has the stockside mount. http://www.goapr.com/Audi/products/stage3_long.html theres a link to the apr page for the stage 3, it doesnt say anything about having the intercooler included in the kit.

Im pretty sure thats a bad thing to not have the supporting mods such as the fmic with that turbo setup.

i just bought the car haha, i was never into turbod cars before so i didnt know a lot about the components going into it. i used to drive a big *** 4x4 toyota. i do know the fmic well give me better cooling and free up a little more power, thats why i want to get it installed as soon as i can come up with the piping.

There is a FMIC piping kit you can get off ebay, but I forget how much it is, or if it will even work.. Check that out though..

APR's kit does not come w/ a FMIC.

You can get pipes bent at a muffler shop maybe?

Probably be a PIA to get pipes and tubes for a FMIC that didn't come with them

Yea, you will get alot more power freed up, probablly pulling a crap load of timing up top. Don't worry there are tons of guy with the gtrs and 2871r elims with out a FMIC.
