I need an intake pipe fabricated. It's not for an Evo. It's about a 45 degree angle, 7 inches long, and a few holes, etc... shouldn't be too hard.

Any recommendations? Thanks!

I trust M1 Fabrication & Development. They're located in Brea. He works on alot of big name cars and has very good quality work. Great prices for top quality work.

I'm actually leaning towards Hytech. From what I can find of Hytech's welds vs. RRE's welds, Hytech's welds are a more "show quality".

Comments?

I show my car but I don't really classify it as a show car (in the context of the typical HIN show car).

Regardless, since I show my car, I want this fabricated part to have exceptional welds, etc...

We can do what ever quality you want to pay for. Average EVO customer isnt a show guy so our average weld isnt show quality, nor do we charge show rates. But if you are into that kind of thing Lod can spend the extra time and do your show quality dealio.

Hi Mike,

I hope I didn't come across as offensive.Â* If I did, I apologize!Â* I just going off what I found on RRE's website (i.e. the fabricated downpipe, exhausts, etc...).Â* Do you have any pictures of "show quality" work you guys have done? But yes, I'm willing to pay for quality (of course, within a reasonable budget).

Thanks

It all comes down to time cleaning the parts, time making a perfect fit, putting on some relaxing music, getting the lighting right....

Best would be to stop by with what you got, be clear with your expectations and we can go from there.

M1 fabrications in brea not M1 autosport. And as far as I know. M1 Fabrications is the same M1 that makes the harness bar.
