IIRC, it's 44" + the fittings

I had to get a new one for my '01, since it's different than from which the '00 car that I took the APR stage 3.

2.5'-3' is perfect. Then again, it depends on the manifold...

ATP and APR mani's should use 2.5-3', custom tube manifolds (034 and FULL-RACE) would need one a little longer.

it all depends on how close to the block you are able to run it. If you dont get the right

combo of over and under the coolant, and crankcase pipes, it can make or break you...
