FMIC, stock twins, what piping will fit?
i bought a Megan Racing Front Mount Intercooler....but all i bought was the intercooler itself, no piping. The intercooler is 28x11.75x3 and i have the stock twins.
What intercooler piping kit will fit the stock twins and my intercooler?

Like Mahjik said, you will have to have your own piping fabricated up. This is where some of the R&D goes with vehicle-specific kits, rather than just buying a universal fit intercooler.

Yeah thats just for the SMIC. Youll get the elbow, extension, aaaaand some sort of turn tube for the SMIC Your elbow and extender are gold though. They have an actual FMIC kit that can be ordered for the stock twins. I suggest you give jason a ring and talk to him about it. Honestly though any competent metal/exhaust shop should be able to do this if you can mount the intercooler somehow and get the car to them or even do a little head scratching and take specs to them.

keep your composure as you go through this. Its hard. Thats why full kits cost bank. I still say your best bet is to get th car to a shop and have them run the pipes coming off the intercooler and then meet everythin up in the middle. You will sort this out. Its a little more brain cell oriented than what most of us do. Get some measuring tapes and some papers and do a bad layout for it. roughly where you want the piped to go and such. And from this initial problem all the smalley ones will play in as they must. Commending your effort. Good luck. Ill be keeping tabs on ya if you need help.

would a kit like this match up correctly or match up with a little tweaking?
