I got real lucky on my intercooler, I managed to get a set of 3" cast aluminum bends, incredible light, think and no bottleneck. These things go regularly for almost $150 each, but I managed them for a song

Pics coming next week

Mine are close, I'll put up a pic when I can get one. The bends that I am using have built in grooves for clamps with no flange and longer straights.
