some of them: I hear you can use the hotpipes if you run those bottom mount manifolds and a t25, but coldpipes usually don't work because of the different intake manifolds on the ka and sr.

Sr piping is what i bought to use for my setup. The only thing that looks to need any fabrication will be the the cold pipe to throttle body coupler like spooled pointed out. I'll prob just try to use my old cold air intake pipe for that.

weird. My SR cold pipe bolted up perfect to my KA.. Most any SR intercooler kits will fit the ka with a bottom mount manifold.

you know I think stock sr piping would fit, don't hold me to it, but I think I heard somewhere that it is almost identical. You might wanna see if anyone has tried it first

Well, here's a few pictures from when I did my piping and stuff.. The cold pipe fit perfect.. I had to make my own hotpipe since I used a top mount manifold

S13 sr20 FMIC piping will fit the KA, they have similar intake manifold designs.

S14 sr20 cold pipe wont fit due to completely different intake manifold design and placement.

If you are using a t3/t4, the s13 sr20 hotpipe wont fit.
