For charge pipes, in alloy....depending on what you need of course...
But I used kits same as these for mine. obviously from a point of view of welding, no sense buying coloured pipes but I see they do sell them, and you can get various colours of silicone.
But you get a lot of parts for the money. The hose clamps are usually *****, and silicone quite thin. I just replaced the clamps with cheap stainless worm drive clamps ( practical and space reasons ) but did use the silicone. 2 years on and up to 28psi boost...so far all good. Although the pics of the hose clamps in these egay links look better than the crap I got a couple of years ago with a similar kit.
Alloy tubing is around 2mm thick too, so fairly strong and easy welded by dummies like me.
