I refuse to use ebay cores like they do. I actually have an old ebay core thats denser than theirs. I will also be using hardpipes. Also i wont be adding the massive amounts of piping on the 180 kits. All will come with appropriate size piping and core. There will be a stock to mild kit and a high hp kit. The mild kit will be perfect for those with stock to gt28rs/t3s60 and thehigh hpkit will be for a gt2871r-gt3082r. These cores will cool far better and only see a couple deg increase when in boost.

cost are not done yet but will be not much more for the stock and a few hundred more for the high hp kit.

so what do you do if you somehow get a rip or hole in the fmic hose. I ask this and the above because i was considering a tcarbon kit because i only plan to unitune and 75shot and dont need a expensive one for a big turbo kit and was also considering an ebay core

Red- I tried that approach, and the companies I talked to wouldn't sell just the hoses/piping. They know what's going on and want to make as much profit as possible. Maybe you can sweet talk them. Or just bug the crap out of them with lots of messages and maybe they'll send you some for free. Haha. Laugh at that one, you know it's funny.

Just because it cools better than stock doesnt mean that its great. You can lose a good deal of power with an ebay core vs a quality core. This means loss in iat's and timing. Plus you continue to act like you are going to run a constant 26psi and nitrous.

Prolly if you had a ripped hose from a kit, you could send it to them and buy a replacement. Like a DSMlink cable.That way the company knows it made it's cash for the kit somewhere, and will only be helping out somebody who bought a full kit.
