Intercooler Piping
 
I want to set up my front mount intercooler, and bov, but i don't know where to get cheap 2.5" piping. I know some places used to do "grab bags," and they contained u bends, 90s, straight pipes and were relatively cheap. I'm not quite sure where to get them and i want them now! I just ordered a full 3" mandrel bent downpipe, stainless steel brake lines for front and back, got my volvo intercooler ready to be put in.

Also i want a place that's kinda local (Within an hour driving distance). So i can pick it up and not have to wait for shipping.

Burns Stainless is in Costa Mesa. I don't know how cheap they are.

Yeesh.. it's $30 bucks for 1 15 degree bend pipe. If i wanted to get all the piping necessary itd probably be around $300 bucks all together. Thanks though, i see some on ebay that are universal aluminum and come with a bunch of bends, tbolt clamps, and couplers for like $100.. might just go that route if i cant find anything else, I'm only pushing like 14 pounds of boost.

I think Ebay will be your cheapest solution.

Ya, I'm going with EBay. There is a local seller, speeddaddy I think. And you can save on shipping.

I just went to the muffler shop and picked up some mild steel bends and had everything welded the way I wanted it and then painted everything black.
