Aluminium or Stainless steel?

[Pot78]

Need advise that nows a day which material r usually use for intercooler piping? How much would it charge from 'those' well known sunway workshop making piping for evo2 on putra ? Usually how long does it take?

Any comment for ZAP ready made intercooler piping? Since saw magazine stated that got ready stock for my car just plug and play for E1-3. Thank you.

aluminum is the best.light weight n disperse heat better.con is that this
kind of material is pricey.

just like GT said, aluminium , bt it aint cheap
get from zap should be ok , but do know that , if u wish to get
an aftermarket intercooler, u would indeed face probs to get a aluminium welder
to get ur pipings modified

.. you can ask those engineering shops to weld, my prev experience tells me it's e-x-p-e-n-s-i-v-e.

hehehe...1 inch of weld cost rm10 right?

i dunno how long mine wuz (intercooler) but costs me something like RM40, IIRC...IMO it's freakin' expensive, size of that hole it meant to cover is something like 50-cent coin oni..

 

[GT_AUTO]

yeah lar.something like that lor.damn expensive.

oh dear, just bought myself an intercooler, looks like i'd turn to stainless piping better....

100% stainless steel supporter hee~ less chance to get a pipe break :P

 

[Pot78]

If stainless steel + samco silicon hose roughly market price how much? :D

 

[GT_AUTO]

s/steel pipe r more prone to break/crack compare to aluminum pipe bro cos
aluminum pipe r softer.

i did mine at JFA for 1.7k (all the samco hoses, install boost ctrl, fix the wastegate n pipes)..
N i did ask abt the aluminium piping n it costs abt 2k... (still... it looks the same)
send the car at night n took it the next evening around 7pm.. its not even a one day job..
with that price, i think its worth it..

aluminium is a good choice coz it can hold temp better..

at other place u can get it cheaper, but i just like the workmanship n the customer service of those plp in jfa..
ah heng usj abt 1k+, robert segambut also from 900 to 1k+, jian hang is abt the same price with JFa.. its up to u, ur choice..

f.y.i stainless steel doesn't break ezily... its abt the same with aluminium..

 

[Pot78]

Ask a friend to quote price for me from JFA 1.4k for ss piping not sure with samco silicon hose or other brand silicon hose, is this the reasonable price?

if JFA or others charge u 2K++ 3K++ for aluminium,dont get cheated! (fyi JFA don't do aluminium welding) .. if urself meet the "King" itself. imagine how cheap it is? (i dare cut my fingers)
