Default dumb intake question

For those of you who buy piping and cut your own intake how do you connect the pipes together? Do you weld them or just clamp em together? I know its dumb but i wanna know what yields the best results. Nothing came up when i searched it

Most go with aluminum pipes which are hard to weld. Use clamps and those rubber connector thingies. Maybe they're silicon. I dunno.

I was thinking 304 stainless, welded, and then Jet-Hot coated.
