Complete intercooler piping kit for Integra
Anyone know where I can find an affordable complete intercooler piping kit? I found one on the treadstone performance website for $290 but that seems a little pricey although it includes welded flange, couplers, and clamps . . . .
Then spooling performance has one for $210 that doesn't include couplers or clamps . . .
Anyone use a DIY kit from ebay? I'm not sure if I want to use a kit with out bead roll ends.
Anyone make them here and sell them to members?

Trying to save money and going FI do not mix well. buy ebay parts but be ready for it to cost you a lot more money in the end then you are saving.

C'mon man. you want rolled beads, good couplers, T-bolt clamps, and a happy ending for a low low price? No one's going to do that. those extras cost the builder money. He's not going to do that for free just because you feel like being cheap.

Re: Complete intercooler piping kit for Integra
if your just looking for intercooler piping, just get it on ebay.. 50-75
then get on your local craigslist. and find someone that can weld aluminum, and get it welded up.. (please keep in mind, that it still has to be seperated somewhere)
probably another 100.

Ebay piping is garbage, besides being super thin, the coating they put on it makes it a pain in the *** to weld. I refused to weld it when customers come in.

Re: Complete intercooler piping kit for Integra
oh man, hate to prep aluminum pipe for welding... hmmmm.. isnt that what welders do???
wont weld it, because its beyond your abilities? or just your machine's
would you rather have him spend 200, for your piping. (rcautoworks).
anyways, that has the same shiny crap on aluminum. which is probably what all intercoling piping has to keep it from further oxidation, and keeps it nice and shiny.

And I don't care what he buys, I'm just trying to help him out, I'd rather not see him buy a poor product and spend maybe a little more money and get something that fits and works well.
Two good source for aluminum bends

Re: Complete intercooler piping kit for Integra
I guess I didn't know what to expect to pay. I am not buying any knock off brands or going cheap. I was just hoping to save a little money. There is only one way to do things and that is the right way and the right way is expensive.
I was thinking of going with GO-AUTOWORKS for my intercooler piping kit. They look to be good quality. Anyone try these?
