I have a Greddy 3-row FMIC for my MK4. Recently blew a pipe racing, it fell down and got smashed on the road. It's the passenger-side 90-degree elbow that goes down into the fender-well area.
Does anyone know if I can buy/order individual pieces from Greddy? From what I've heard, I'll probably just have to get a custom-made pipe and chrome it. Luckily it's one of the more "hidden" pieces. Any shop recommendations for this also?... TIA
01ITR#700, he'll do it for you.

Thanks for the suggestions. I chatted with ITR, unfortunately I don't think he has 2 7/8", just 3" piping to work with. It actually makes a big difference in my application. I'm still checking around.

You might be able to pick up a piece of 2 and 7/8s" pipe from summitracing.com, but you might have to cut and weld it onto your application, and 01ITR#700 can do that for you.

just get the pipes welded. If you get the piping from mark, just have him weld all of them together so that wont happen next time. :)

That's actually a novel idea, unfortunately it eliminates that "flex" that you want between the intercooler and the turbo outlet manifold. Plus the two other pieces that my broken one goes between are a different type of metal.
Just asked Greddy-USA, they do NOT sell individual pieces (fucking assholes), and Summit Racing. Summit only has 2 3/4" and 3". I'm getting the 2 3/4" only as a last resort.

What about asking a couple of muffler shops? I'm sure they have different sized pipings that can fit your needs.

That's just an odd sized pipe, I have no idea where to get mandrels in that size. We can do 3" pipe with 3" couplers, they will tighten down to 2-7/8" just fine I assume...that's an option we can try possibly.

Thanks to everyone for the tips! MVP Motorsports was able to get me the exact piece I need. Lucky enough to find one in stock! Yeah, ITR is right about that weird size, must be a "Jap" thing. Heheh.
P.S. I'm also ordering some nice T-bolt clamps and redoing EVERything.
