Hah don't expect anything crazy, I don't plan on pushing it...I'll be running my usual 30psi as my fuel system is at its limit anyways.

Dunno, it was just in the box.

Yup it's a nice piece! I'm actually not even using it on my car yet b/c my car came with a modified turbo outlet pipe that transitions to 2.5" on its own. It's not very smooth but it doesn't appear to be holding me back yet
I'll probably sell it with my (soon to be) fixed old UICP.
No brackets, that would just add cost I guess and I don't really think they are necessary. I kinda like not having them actually, lets the pipe move more when the engine rocks. It would definitely 100% eliminate blown I/C pipes but other than last night (forgot to fully tighten t-bolt on intercooler) it has never ever been a problem for me on this car.
That being said, this car drives *amazingly well* with a blown I/C pipe. On a DSM/CT9A maf-based evo you would be hard pressed to make it anywhere...I actually drove several miles back to my house and just fixed the car in the garage, no issue...just light throttle.
Oh, and in other news, my LTFT's decided to start working again! Checked this morning, right at 1.5%
