Also can they both be welded with a Wire welder, or stick welder???
I don't have a aluminum welder so thats out of the question.

Any help on choosing which on to use for my Intercoole Tubing??

either would work fine and both can be welded with a wire welder, just hope you have gas.
the stainless will look nicer though

i prefer aluminum, but since you dont have a welder for that i guess its out of the question

I agree with smokin. Cost is always the big factor and the aluminized tubing will hold up quite well if prepped correctly.

what do you mean Prepped?
I will either have it Coated or painted with engine enamel.

FWIW, several of the turbo companies use aluminzed steel tubing for the intercooler piping.

If I were to make some for myself I would probably go with aluminized steel, then jet hot coat it.

I made mine out of 6061 alum then sanded down the tig weld and had them powercoated and they look awesome.

Ok, it looks like I will use the 3inch Aluminized SS for the intercooler piping. ITs also about $20 cheaper than the 304 SS.

I have true duels right now as well that dump at the axle and I plan on getting the BMR relocated Pan hard bar so I can run my 2.5 inch exhaust out the rear. Should I use the Aluminized SS for this as well or the regular stainless steel since its EXHAUST.

IT will be welded up against regular mild steel if that matters?
