I welded a steel 1.25"-2" reduced to a mandrel 2.5 pipe. It was difficult to maneuver the large mandrel bends to where I needed them. I also foung it difficult to cake the flange air-tight and actually had to weld three layers...

The intercooler core is 2.5.

This thread inspired me so much that I bought a 250$ AWD civic wagon with blown head gasket. Got it running good now to piece together a turbo setup.
