Carbon Fiber intake pipe.. COOL!!

[LightningGSX]

The 2"-3" diameter CF sleeves used to make piping are only $6 a foot.Of course you need more than 1 layer, resin,and an inflatable bladder but removing welding, mandrel bending and beading from the equation, makes CF piping much less expensive than SS.Downside of CF is its so fragile, and the resins don't handle heat well at all.
