Anyone Make Junkyard FMIC piping kits???

I know the miata guys have piping kits for junkyard fmics from saabs and stuff for when they turbo them. What about for the fc? any piping kits to say pipe a tmic as an fmic or to pipe a starion or saab 9000 fmic in?

ohhh ok...you dont really need a welder to pipe your own kit. just mark em, and cut em, and let some one else do it. call around, i found a random truck shop a block away from me, who has a guy there that can Tig weld like a mother f*cker. be reasourcefull.

as for the junkyard core, i see if your on a budget...but, seriously, ebay cores are like 200bux. your likly to spend that at pickapart.

i have seen a few people use various cores like volvo, isuzu NPT, saab and mitsu starion intercoolers before. not uncommon but more efficient to just spend $200 on an ebay core at least.

with as cheap as the e-bay cores are getting, why **** around with the junkyard stuff. You can get good sized e-bay ebay intercooler is priced similar to an NPR.
