Innercooler Pipes

So is there any recommendations of where to purchase pipes from?

I have tried the one gentlemen who offers a set with clamps for 200$.
But I have never heard a response.

Or should I just get some SD pipes and modify them?

Ive never welded pipe before, but I will learn.

Thanks

If you have a welder, they aren't hard to make. When I got mine I got 7.3 SD ones, and got one extra pipe to make 2 out of 3. If you do this, make sure you get ones that aren't aluminum. Some are, ask me how I know..

You are welcome, and yes I used that pipes for both sides. I didnt make any mod in the hot side (maybe I should weld a little piece of extra pipe there tho.), and in the cold side, is where I added some pipes and boots.

IF you are going to weld, I think is better, because in that way, there are less possiblities of leaks.
