Flexible intercooler piping?
Does any one know where I can get intercooler piping like FM or some other type of flexible piping. I want it to retain its shape and not collapse when i bend it. I want to do aluminum piping but its really tight in my 99. Any info is appreciated.

I can get you good prices here:

But really silicon and rubber hoses will collapse unless they are either corrugated or wire reinforced if bent to any great degree. Wire reinforced is expensive and corrugated sucks for flow...

In addition, don't discount the inherant cooling effect provided by all-metal piping. I believe that Corky has done some testing to prove that this phenomenon does take place, even with an I/C.
