well i bought this IC pipping for 100 bux tonight and it was night time and i couldnt see it really i just saw greddy so i assumed i scored good. well i got home and only 3 pipes are greddy and the rest are just a bunch of elbows u guys think i can make a front munt setup out of these

you can do it you will just need a nice tig welder and some one who can weld aluminum good

It's all metal.........

you could use them , the only think i notice is that they all look the same diameter size and u really want a 3" for the TB to intercooler side and 2.5 for the intercooler to turbo side , that's just what i did on mine , but you have more than enough piping there
good luck with it

ps: and really greddy pipes don't give you any extra hp

I was wondering because i didnt know different brands of IC pipe cost more and work better.....

I understand steel vs aluminum... but different brand pipe? Is there a reason to have GReddy pipe vs. Standard aluminum pipe? Like HKS pipe vs. GReddy? What would get me more Hp?

ohh man you're going to have a fun time trying to put those tubes together. You should have went with a boostlogic na-t pipe kit.

well the guy said it would bolt right up and said it was already bent and everything for a front mount. so i thought it was a good deal. 100 bux for all the pipping in the right bends. he gave me some greddy pipes because he had a greddy kit i guess and just some extra pipes he had laying around. yes its all the same size and i guess i'll just have to buy some 3 in pipping for the TB

HKS, GREDDY all that is just buying it because of the name but brands don't matter when it comes to that , steel heats up a little more than aluminum and of course they are heavier plus aluminum is twice the money , in my car i used steel because with the aluminum after a while of tighting the clamps they get out of shape at teh ends (just my opinion)

Use some steel you'll be fine i used 2 3"u bends and 3 2.5" u bends cost under $100.oo + 2 3" silicone hoses, 2 2.5" and 1 3" to 2.5" step down

lol, thx, but i THINK VJ was just bein an ***, lol.
the main reason i'd go aluminum is rust.
although the steels are generally aluminized steel i'd rather go w/ strictly aluminum, because i blieve the alumizing they do is a surface thing only.

i did pretty much what your trying to do.. bought elbows and 45 degree angles in aluminum 3 inch and here is the result. welded nicely by some pros.
