Default Easy question....does the Vitesse MAF require different intercooler pipes

Like I said....easy question right.

I'm waiting for the Vitesse Stage III kit and was looking at some pics of this kit installed....I noticed that the intercooler pipes dont appear to be stock. Do the pipes come in the kit or will I need to purchase different pipes that will work with this kit?

Thanks everyone

You can use the stock pipes, but IMHO, it looked crappy because there's this obvious spot in the front/middle that was carved out for something so I ordered the hard pipe set from Lindsey.

I just did a write up on my Vitesse MAF install. https://rennlist.com/forums/924-931-...up-w-pics.html

Fergus did a great one as well: https://rennlist.com/forums/944-turb...do-it-too.html

I'm assuming you saw the thread of the Vitesse blow through maf a guy made. That's a custom setup and not the way the MAF is intended to be installed.

Vitesse is a great company and will send you all major items you will need to install your kit. You may need such things as some hosing or clamps...but that's expected.
