IC Pipe carnage

Just figured I'd share some pictures of todays work in fabricating intercooler piping.







Just a few more hours of cuting pipes and welding and she'll be ready.

Check this,

this is one of TWR's customers who flipped the intake manifold and routed the piping through the radiator.

Where did you buy the pipes? Are they aluminium? Are you doing the welding? Can I help? I need to learn how to weld aluminium.

Thanks

nah, they're standard aluminized steel exhaust piping. I'm going to paint them when it's all over. It'll be ugly, I promise.

You can help whenever you want.
I'm doing it tomorrow at noon until 2pm. Then from 5-7
