      this is something your not gonna be able to get much help on....i mean if you want to see my pipes click my sig picture. but the odds of you finding those exact pipes are slim to none they are a mix of a CAI, eclipse pipes, and mandrel bends. everyones intercooler pipe setup is going to be different. the best i can tell you is to buy a bunch of mandrel bends and couplings, pick a starting location, say the turbos compressor outlet. and just go from there. until you get to the throttle body. trial and error is the only way.

        I'm kinda thread jacking but oh well, i didn't want to start a new thread with this question. Are any of you using the heat wrap stuff to keep your pipes cooler? I am considering doing this, because the stuff is pretty cheap, and it couldn't hurt

            well it depends on the how the turbo is facinv is it upside down or pointing up. then you have to have a good welder or if you know how to bend pipe and do the shit yourself it will make it easier for you. I have my pipes pointed on the downwards because i have the turbo pointed downwards going in a s bend towards the drivers side of the intercooler and the i worked from the throttlebody goin to the hole in the firewall of the cb7 then into bent towards the intercooler.

                I had mine fitted perfectly and the more welds on the pipes i had the better to prevent the couplers from popping off so easily yet i can take apart what i can take off too many couplers on the pipes the harder more time consuming it is to find out where a boost leak will come from if your not getting boost

                  so was your pipes spot welded together, then had couplers put over them? or are your pipes all welded together except for a few? I really don't understand what your saying.

                    okay take it like this have only 5-6 couplers in your ic pipping period that way you only have 5 points to pinpoint a boost leak thats how i did it and it works perfectly. spotweld how your going to have your is piping so that you can weld your pipes up just to retrofit how everything looks
