Im ordering the V3 FMIC in the next couple days off the whoosh website, I was wondering if I should also be ordering some type of new piping to go with it or if the OEM piping will suffice.

Stock Turbo? If yes....Stock turbo piping is more than adequate. You could maybe get some Boost hoses if you wanna get fancy in just about any color from Whoosh* I know I did! ;)

But if not stock, upgrade. When I was tracking down a boost loss issue with the s280, I made a video of the stock hoses. They expand a good bit when in boost. Also, the V3 is pretty tuff. I hit a deer and it bent the fins pretty good. It still held without any issues.

Any idea how much boost is too much for stock hoses? I run around 26.25 with my tune on mostly stock hoses. I did upgrade the hotside pipe between turbo and where it mounts to the oil pan. The rest is stock. Been that way for around 35,000 miles. Seems ok but maybe I'm on borrowed time?

That's fine* for peak Boost on a stock Turbsky
