Well assuming you have a tig and you can weld then yes you can weld it.
Just run a bead around the end of the pipes that you use couplers on and you will be fine.

The typical solution is to pull the trigger of a loaded gun when it's shoved down your throat.

You just LOVE being spoon fed don't you? Use some common sense. If you can't figure out how to blow a hole through the back of your head, grab a rope - tie one end around your neck, the other around a tree and see how long you can hang there.

its not being spoon fed when you ask a question, and someone tells you the answer. yes i could go in the next few days, buy the ---- and try it but when i spend a ton of money and tuning on this motor and turbo setup and i blow off IC piping in a spot that is impossible to get to its going to ---- me in the end. knowing me itll happen on the dyno and ill look like an idiot. i have never dealt with intercooler piping, let alone a turbo setup. its my first build and im assuming you know the answer considering you have so much to say. take the 30 seconds it takes you to rag and type some useful ---- instead, then people can learn from the forum, not get stressed.

You're asking how to hold intercooler piping onto the intercooler. You're a tool and can't take 5 minutes to SEARCH on the forum.

I'm ------- with you because you need to learn how ---- works here. This isn't "I'm going to ask questions that have been asked 100 times before" this is HMT. If you don't like how ---- works here than I'll be happy to fist ---- your mother's -------.

Lots and lots of duct tape. Just keep wrapping it around both ends your trying to connect. Thats what everyone does thats making over 400whp.
