OH SNAP! You guys freaking rock!!!!! I'm sending an order your way right now! :amen:

[mcsvt]

Wow, good stuff. I haven't checked intercooler piping kits yet, but your prices look great. Thanks for joining us here :thumb: I will be supporting you soon :)

[TurboGLH]

Nice pricing. I know where I'm gonna be going for my intercooler piping in the future.

[CRMB]

Thanks guys, and thanks for the order.

If you guys have any suggestions, or need something we dont offer that we should, please let me know.

[Subliminal]

Wow. You guys have some great prices on those mandrel bends.

Question: Any future plans on offering silicon couplings and t-clamps for the IC side of things?

[David Bohrer]

AHHH!

Work has blocked the site in mid-shopping! Do you guys have a phone # or e-mail so that I can spend some money?

[mcsvt]

The email on the page is racesol@yahoo.com I don't see a phone number listed.

[Lugert]

Do you have a name we can associate the business with?

[CRMB]

We have purchased the master distributorship from a relatively large silicone company for Oregon. We will be stocking a ton of couplers, clamps, etc very soon.

[dodge80_89]

Any plans on making a 3" exhaust bend kit?? I'd be interested in getting one of those.

[Directconnection]

I have a question on intercooler piping. Can you do aluminum mandrel bends for 2-1/2" and 3" pipe?

Hello?

[GLHSKEN]

Adam, Please forgive the preceding post. The individual is really harmless. From the webpage you provided, there are a ton of products that can be used to help our cars.

Silicone couplings will be a great adder to the offering.

Lugert, please show a bit of restraint. The individual was referred to this sight through other members. It is a great opportunity to broaden the vendor base. Any further posts such as the one above will be removed.

Personally, I have 2 cars currently that WILL benefit from the products he offers.

[Lugert]

Restraint? I asked a simple question that was ignored.

I see his name is Adam, thanks as it will be helpful when people say "Adam from Racing-Solutions". Similar to how people say "Cindy at FWDPerformance".

I am ordering the exhaust 2.5kit for my intercooler, has more tubing.

[altered7151]

Wow, those are some smokin deals on bends and flanges. I paid over $40 just for two 2.5" 180 bends at summit a couple weeks ago, wish I would have known about you guys then. What part of the country are you guys in and what company do you use for shipping?

I was looking at summit to do that a couple of days ago...and I'm glad I waited. As soon as I saw the website, I placed my order thismorning, and I already have a tracking number. How cool is that?

[3rdGen3.0]

hmmm... i found RS's site the other day while looking for mandrel bent piping... then i noticed they had exhaust flanges for the v6 mitsu engine, for a very good price!

very good addition to the community... and i'm sure that his vendor fee has already been paid for and then some :D

Way to rub it in punk :p


I'm assuming your guy's bend radius' are center line, any chance you could do a 3" radius 3" 90 bend? I picked one up from another company a few weeks ago for a swingvalve project, but after seeing your guys' prices I'm a little embarrassed to say what I paid for it.

[CRMB]

Lugert, my name is Adam. I wasn't sure exactly what you were looking for in an answer.

[CRMB]

All the radiuses are listed by centerline, correct. The tighest we bend on a 3" current (as in we have tooling for) is a 4" radius. We bend 3" on 4", and 3" on a 6" radius. We will soon be offering 3" on a 6" radius aluminized (A787) mild steel exhaust builder kits. The tube came in today.

[CRMB]

Yes we can. We are currently running 2.5" on a 3.75" radius on our largest bender, so it's very likely that some aluminum bends will be run off with the tooling on the bender. (6061)


I have a question on intercooler piping. Can you do aluminum mandrel bends for 2-1/2" and 3" pipe?

[CRMB]

I am scheduled to run 2.25" on a 3" radius on the little bender before the end of the month.


2 1/4 as well. Great addition to the community.. Thanks

[CRMB]

Here's a few in house shots for you guys. We are a manufacturing company and this is why we can offer the prices we do.

Ohhhhhhhhhh, those SS pipes are sooooooooo shiny, :thumb:

[cordes]

I would love to see a aluminum bend that will clear the head at a 45* angle and be pointed back toward the front of the car. In a perfect world I would have all the parts to transition it from 2 to 2.5" in one nice kit.

Hopefull a pic to follow.

[2.216VTurbo]

+1 on the aluminum pieces in larger sizes. I know you said you are working on it so give us a post as soon as the 2.5 and 3 inch stuff is ready and you will have an order from SoCal.

I know it is probably a longshot but are custom bends available? If so what kind of template/drawing/measurements would you need to make a piece with two bends or more in it? I'm guessing the old coat hanger trick isn't going to work;)

[CRMB]

Just basic measurements. We can take anything from just a sketch to full solidworks models and import them directly into our benders. Typically you want to measure from tangents OR from apex verticies. If you need more of explanation just PM me and I will give you a step by step.

[Lugert]

Lugert, my name is Adam. I wasn't sure exactly what you were looking for in an answer.

Thanks for the reply Adam.
You pricing is great! Welcome to the wonderful world of TurboDodges!

Any chance you will be stocking 8 valve head flanges?

[Lugert]

Man is this a cool picture!

I can't believe my bends came from summit yesterday.....ugh!

[CRMB]

I just need a gasket to pull the dimensions from for a new flange.

That deserves a :dancingbana:

[briceturbosports]

alex if guys should make the kit with engine flange your bends and turbo flange that will kick azz :thumb:

[GLHNSLHT2]

Do you guys do any welding?? I've got a tube header that was made for a 2.2 and I'd like to get some copies made with your larger 1.5" pipes. Current pipes are 1.25" But maybe if you guy could just copy the bends and with your flanges I could find someone else to weld it.

[BIG PSI]

I will be in the market for a 3 inch exhaust system for my 1989 Plymouth Grand Voyager SE within the next 45 days. Do you have the ability to make it ??

Thanks
Chuck

[contraption22]

Welcome to TM.com!

He if i were to send you guys some roughly fabricated intercooler piping, would you be able to custom bend copies of them in nice aluminum tube!?

[dodge80_89]

I might have a gasket laying around somewhere, I even have an extra exhaust manifold that I could drop off so you can get some measurements. I'm in Cornelius, OR so shipping it would just be me driving over to you. Let me know.

Also if I purchase anything, could I pick it up to save on shipping and time. If not it's cool. Welcome and can't wait to do business. I'm going to pass the word to couple of my friends that are working on their cars, but not TD's for the intercooler piping.

[CRMB]

We do a number of welded assembles. Just pm me a pic of your header.

[CRMB]

I have no way of doing that. I can provide you with the bends to do it yourself however. Bent assemblies are complicated, requiring R&D or a prototype then check fixtures and welding fixtures. It's no small task to produce an application specific part.

Sure, we do this for many different companies and applications.

Just ordered a 2.5" kit so I can weld up an exhaust for my Van.

Thanks!

[turbovanman²]

Ok, what would the price be for your 2.5 inch exhaust kit done in half that size, half 3 inch and aluminium tube?

Sorry Adam, just going thru options, ;) Just want my damn IC installed, lol! :nod:

[CRMB]

Simon,
We just finished up the 2.5" aluminum ic pipe kits last night (15 sets) .. but there is no 3" aluminum pipe kits and I can't make any until we run that tooling again. We have stainless in 2.5" and 3" though.

One thing; do your exhaust bends have swagged ends??

Adam,

I am glad that you took time out of your busy schedule to come over and visit.
I will be ordering some parts from you soon. Glad you got home safely.

[David Bohrer]

I finally placed my order!

[CRMB]

Thanks for the order!

Go design a turbo header chuck!

[Alberta_Daytona]

ooo....ahhh
nice prices guys....
Im awaiting a 3" exhaust kit to come out.....and some 3" exhaust flanges would be really cool.

I think I have a new favourite vendor.

[CanadianDaytona]

Top right of the screen it keeps popping up, Racing solutions banner or its

[jckrieger]

I'd be all over a 3'' exhaust kit or a 2.25'' intercooler tubing kit. Keep us posted when you offer these products since I think there will be a lot of demand...

[MOPAR2YA]

Any chance I can get a tracking number for the order that was placed about 10 days ago?

thanks,

wallace

[My96z]

Just placed my order as well. Using the 2.5" exhaust bend kit for a intercooler install :D



Jeff

[MOPAR2YA]

Anyone have a phone number for these guys? Im looking for my order or tracking number for it. Sent email with NO reply.

[Turbodave]

Wallace, I don't have a phone number for them, but look for an email from yahoo stores that should have your tracking number in it. The way the order confirmation and tracking number emails come it might be easy to confuse them with spam.

I paid with paypal, got my paypal confirmation, a yahoo stores confirmation and a tracking number a few days later when the pipes shipped. The order I placed on the 19th was on my doorstep the 27th. Nice new mandrel bent pipe, just like advertised, I'm happy.

[MOPAR2YA]

I'll look again. The paypal cleared my bank the 20th, still nothing.

[CRMB]

Wallace, your tracking # is 1ZR793170391386701. It was shipped on the 27th. You should have recieved an automated tracking # through the store - it may have been deverted to your spam box however. -Adam

[MOPAR2YA]

Thanks Adam.

[GLHSKEN]

From the tracking info.. It's being delivered today.


Adam, Thanks again for the products you bring.

[CRMB]

[cordes]

Very nice looking headers.

[Wink]

Adam,

I'm just mesmorized by what all you carry in your shop.

Right now I'm actually looking for a couple 2-1 merge collectors. But I see that you only have stainless up on the site. Any chance of having a couple custom ones done in aluminized? I only ask because I'm using aluminized pipes for my down pipes on my custom twin turbo setup. I'll definately be sending you my business pending the outcome of your reply. I'll PM you with the exact parts I'm looking for if need be.

Thank,

Wink

[CRMB]

I'm going to build a variety of 2 to 1s in mild and aluminized this weekend for pics. We build a ton of different collectors.

[Wink]

That's awesome. I'm looking for 1 each 2" x 2.5" and 1 each 2.5" to 3" units in aluminized steel with slip fit connections on the smaller connections. Let me know when you may have something like these. And I'll most likely be putting in an order. Definately within the next couple months at the latest.

Thank again,

Wink

[Frank]

Ya our non-cross flow heads suck for headers, HOWEVER alot of people are building 2.4L cars and engines that use the 2.4L head, and I know that us and the Neon guys could use one.... I would buy one for a 2.4L turbo setup!



Frank

[GLHNSLHT2]

Adam,
I can't send pics through a PM of the header I'm interested in recreating with you guys. Do you have an Email I can send pics too. For the rest of you it's the original JRB header that keeps the turbo in the stock location. I think it could be redone in RS's 1.5" pipes with a better design at the collector. I though about moving the turbo back an inch or so so you can still use the stock d'pipe and just have to get new oil and water return lines fabbed up but that would be cheap enough. I'm gonna throw the motor back in my GLH and take some measurements just to see how far I can move it back.

Looking fwd to an email addy adam. You can PM it to me if you want.

Thanks!

+1 I've been looking for a mexican manifold for a while now, but it looks like it might not work quite the way I want and I may need to make a manifold so I can locate the flange as needed.
