Default Piping problem with a 96 ls, need help ASAP

Ok, ran into a problem installing my kit. I have a 96 integra ls with the b18b and i bought a kit off someone with a b16 in an eg so the piping is slightly different. My problem is that my pipe going from the intercooler to the throtle body runs into the abs system so i am S.O.L. right there. I was hoping you guys might know of someone who sells this piece of piping so i might be able to get it as soon as possible. Anyone know someone who sells this pipe? Prefferably a polished steel.
Any help is great.
Chris

Don't know of anyone selling a charge pipe, but you can order piping from JCWhitney or get an eBay cheapo cold air intake and that might work. custom piping is a bitch

Chris,

Check with Importparts.com and see if they can get you in touch with someone at DRAG if you want the polished piping. They may be able to help.

Well i would have but all of those seem to be aluminum and i would worry about the weld holding up. From what i hear, it wouldn't be very strong.

if you get an alumnium flange and find someone who welds alumnium it should hold up fine
