what kind of intercooler pipes?

What kind of intercooler pipes is everyone running? I've been looking into buying some, but not sure which ones fit the best with the stock battery. Weapon R, XS Engineering, RNR, and Helix is what I've seen so far.

I've looked into AMS and Buschur, but I don't want to spend almost $500 for piping. I know you get what you pay for, but I'm just not wanting to spend that kind of money cause I'm also wanting to get a FMIC as well.

Thanks....

I want a nice looking and functional hard pipe kit. The Perrin from what I've seen isn't that appealing.

Post a pic if I may be wrong and talking about something else.

Looked up the Logic Performance kit. It looks nice. Probably one of the nicer ones out of the bunch. I don't mind spending a little extra cash having to be able to choose what color fittings you want.

Anymore suggestions?

Thanks kErViOsVIII....

I would, but I don't have a welder, know how to weld, or really want to mess with it. Thanks for the advice though.

Weapon-R seems like a good choice if your looking to keep your stock battery.

I have the logic and they fit ok for a stock battery kit, I honestly would just save up and get a real ic kit, it is worth it in the long run

What do you mean by " a real" intercooler pipe kit? Don't these all have pretty much the same function? I don't see where AMS of Buschur's kits would work that much better for the money. Not taking anything from either place, I jsut don't want or feel the need to spend that much money. I'm trying to save for other mods as well.
