I have searched all around, can't find the answer I am looking for... Where in the world can I get a cold pipe for my KAT setup? I can't seem to find one anywhere so I thought about ordering some elbows and connecting them... I'm trying to find someone that has done it before, maybe they can tell me which one's they used. I also don't know where to get one made around here where I live. I think it might cost a bundle...

I know you're not asking where to find SR parts...its only THE most commonly swapped motor in the WORLD and has a HUGE aftermarket!!!!

I put my intercooler in today and I had some problems with the mounting bracket..the stock bumper was getting in the way of the elbows on the bottom so I had to cut a little bit. My hood won't shut now because I had to bend the bracket down to fit the intercooler on so I am thinking about removing that steel bumper thing... I never had one on my 180...it's just getting in the way now.. im thinking about taking it off. I hope im not sounding too confusing.
