You cant beat those intercoolers for the money. They also make installation with the gt4 foglights a lot easier.

Looks good manny, what coating are you going with? nothing special, just some powder coat to make it look good. i cant afford stainless piping right now, and my old piping show no signs of rust after almost 4 years, so i went with the aluminized piping again. my cousin has a buddy who hooked us up with the free powder coating work, so i wasnt about to say no..lol -------------------- Former Team 5SFTE pro member ;)

I second that. Charge piping that is welded together with minimum couplers look damn good. Since you are getting the piping powder coating for free, why not get the valve cover done too? It would go well with each other. What color are you going with?

Charge piping that is welded together with minimum couplers look damn good. it's also better for flow. since most times the pipes aren't mated perfectly together inside the coupler it will cause turbulence because it is not a smooth path for the air to go through. -------------------- 94 GT - Sold -------- 69 Pontiac Lemans - Sold 88 Alltrac - Sold ---- 04 WRX - Sold 00 GT-S - Sold ------ 91 Miata - project/drift car 95 GT - Sold -------- 96 GT - New Daily Drive |

I was planning on making the IC piping on my alltrac black when I go FMIC. I'm curious to know how it'll look!

with your abilities, why didnt you clock the turbo down so you can avoid the pipe over the engine?
