Some people by the honda intake kits on ebay and use that for piping, or you can buy bends from a ton of different places, just google it or look in a parts magazine. I bought mild steel from road race engineering. That intercooler would work great, of course more expensive ones will work better but $200 is pretty reasonable.

From what I've heard from numerous sources that companies like Blitz and Greddy actually use cores by spearco so if you find a spearco intercooler on ebay for like $250-$399 than youd be getting the same performance. The reason the blitz are more expensive is obviously b/c of the name and its also a kit that includes piping and stuff.

Hi danny,

Welcome to the CA forum of NICO and welcome to NICO if you've never visited before. First of all to answer your question, it might be wise and cheaper to have someone customize your piping. Second, double posting in this forum is a "No-No". Please be patient and wait for someone to respond to your first thread. Starting a second thread with the same title kinda upsets the moderators on this board and we will likely close one of the thread so that only one of your thread can attract the answer you're looking for. Hopefully we have an understanding here, now enjoy the forum because these guys are pretty cool and knowledgeable as well and should be able to assist you with your CA motoring needs
