ok, i already thinking about this for long time... I bought SSteel pipes and elbows for my IC piping, but this weekend after puting everything together i saw that the pipes are way heavy... I was thinking about polishing them, but now i got a new idea...
What if i made all the IC piping from CF or Kevlar? I have buntch of those materials. I thought that piping would be lite, and strong. Is there any disatvantage of CF over the Steel? Any sugestions would be cool... -------------------- Ex celica owner - just a guy from other side of the pond...

well, im not planing to run more then 12 psi, thats for sure... So for now i will run only about 6-8 psi. And thicknes of walls would be somthing near 4 mm so i think it will be enouth.Cuz like some one said, if it is done in vacum, it would hold pressure, and it will be very hard to break... -------------------- Ex celica owner - just a guy from other side of the pond...
