hmmm, I only need about a 27-30" inch piece. But I can figure something out.

What is the length from the outside ends of the couplers you have on there now? If the intercooler is 27" wide, you have at least 3" of coupler on each side. Thats 33"...you could smash in the remaining 3". I prefer that it not be cut..

the coulpers are 3" but the intercooler is touching the other pipes. I can move the other pipes out a bit so It should work

I'm only getting 9.5psi at 6700-6800 rpm where others have seen 18psi with similar mods. My intake piping blew apart before the intercooler on one of my runs. I'm 99% confidant the intercooler is the cause
