Re: Aluminum intercooler piping
those piping are too small.
I cant run 2" ic piping that would defeat the purpose of having a big turbo and big intercooler. and a bigger throttle body
I run 2.25 from turbo to the intercooler, and 2.5 from intercooler to throttle body. I want to upgrade all 2.5" or 2.75".

If I can get this piping kit to fit perfectly using witness marks, you ought to be able to do that simple *** piping the same way.

Re: Aluminum intercooler piping
I live in Germany and even though rape on shipping also, my mailing address is stateside APO and cost less to ship to than regular address, people still charge me international. it makes me mad when I pay $50 parcel post for something that cost $3.85 to ship priority mail. but thats how people are, they know you need it so they take bad advantage of you.
if you was in Germany I would accept shipping for you even though its illegal, but it would still cost more than normal. but less than international
