(that what I had to do) but my j-pipe was really long so it had to be modded quite a bit.

It may seem like your spending less because you will spend 300 on a core first, then atleast 200-400 on piping, depending on metal choice, if your welding yourself, and all other work, couplers, clamps, etc.

Theres an easy way for a fmic and then theres custom. Im very happy with my unit but its tricky and time consuming to build and customize to fit. Other package units are known to fit and work with minimal mods.

Just my .02

I agree with Peter, I would just buy a premade kit. More than likely it will be cheaper in the long run and it most definitely will be easier.
