might be a good deal

only thing i would worry about is aluminum is weak and bends easily
i would get stainless steel or even mild steal and get em coated

dude, aluminum isnt as weak as you think. just about every turbo setup uses aluminum charge piping too, because it is light and sheds heat fast.

SS or mild steel would be HEAVY.

you should have enough piping for a tibby
yup aluminium is much better then steel or stainless for weight and heat reasons
the down side is if you need to weld it,most guys over here don't have what is required to weld aluminium at home you'll have to take it to a shop
