I recently picked up, what seems to be the 'older' style Upper intercooler piping from AMS It looks like what, now comes as a separate silicone elbow, is a welded piece
I was wondering what silicone hose/bends I needed to get this to work on stock turbo/frame setup?
AMS said it looked 'different'
I can remove the hose I put at the end and measure if needed..
It looks like it should fit the same way as the new version. I'm guessing they went with silicone for easier install/fitment. I think, in the worst-case scenario, you could contact AMS about getting the silicone piece and then cut and bead-roll the pipe.
I hope you scored a hell of a deal on that piping because it looks ROUGH. Like prototype rough.

It's rough cause it is sand blasted, I own a powder coat company
I wasnt a fan of the 'brown' powder they had on it prior
I literally just found this pic, looks like they had a reducer silcione hose on it....

Ah, that makes sense. But even the welds seem a little bit rough for an AMS piece, or maybe I just expect too much! I'm sure they are functional and just look worse in bare metal.
The pipe already necks down a good deal but if you're missing the correct coupler, the OD of the stock turbo outlet is 1.75" so that's what you'll want to reduce down to.
