Is there any gains to using a name brand intercooler piping like boostlogic vs a generic ebay one? assuming same sizes and same bends. they should be identical right? they would experience the same pressure loss

I am assuming that the only difference is fitment.

Can Any members post a picture of their boostlogic intercooler piping?

Pipe wall thickness is a factor. I don't know what BL or the other name brands use but I'll be using the CXRacing piping kit as it's supposed to be 2mm while alot of the other ebay stuff is 1.6mm. Does it make a difference? I dunno but it makes me feel better.

you are paying for someone designing all the bends for you and the craftsmanship and welding of some pipes I would assume. the kit you will need to cut and clamp or take it to get welded, so it sort of adds up if you want similar quality. pressure loss piping doesn't make that much of a difference unless you have really bad bends or routing but more important is a quality intercooler the pressure drop across those will vary alot based on design/brand.

^ this. Buy the cx piping, and have someone local fab it up how you want it. Cx piping is good stuff, welds pretty.
