Ok I know this is stupid but I am new to the forced induction thing. Do I weld my pipes from my turbo to my intercooler and my intercooler to my intake together or do I use silicone pipe connectors? Like the bend and stuff.

either way... pretty much up to your budget as welding is gonna cost quite a bit more...
both will work... the only problem with silicone connectors is the possibility of them blowing off.. but that's not too big a problem if you run everything right.

I WOULD WELD THEM. If your gonna be running a descent amount of boost, you will blow your piping all apart.

Silicone couplers are fine, just get the good clamps, theres guys running 20+psi on them around here. How much psi do you plan on running? like 5-6?
