Intercooler / piperwork?

[bigdaves12]

gonna be at that point soon, which saab/volvo intercooler fits and how do i go about with pipework?! Still running the ca18et.

-Bump...... no one shed any info on how to go about this? Was thinking about just using exhaust tubing and some hose bends. Cheapo is the idea as you may be able to tell...

i've just bought this...

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/3004140497...84.m1439.l2649 (saab 9000 cooler)

...which has the same 2" pipe work fittings. i plan to use a combo of new pipes from ebay, some of the existing s13 sidemount currently on mine and some of this to make life easier...

put a proper bar and plate intercooler in there, with cast end tanks, mines cheap enough and would'nt take much fitting

Im running the T2 still. Will upgrade later on but ok for now. S13eater how much piping/bends etc are with your intercooler? I considered yours previously but was a little unsure

Also Nedge that flexible hose looks like the business but can you cut it to length without risk of leaks?

[nedge2k]

No idea yet but would imagine so. There's some other stuff on fleabay too that looks a bit more conventional but it doesn't give a pressure rating

[s13eater]

theres a company called ash silicone hoses that is cheaper than samco and a lot cheaper, i use them.

[nedge2k]

yep, samco can fuck right off
