turbo inlet tubing, aluminum or stainless which one & why?

[mousetang]

I am planning on building my own twin turbo system for an 07' mustang, the turbos are going to be mid-mounted under the rear seat where the factory gas tank is now, should be a killer hidden system if all goes well. Was wanting input from those that have built their own or builds custom systems as which tubing is better to use and why?:hail:

Ive only ever used stainless for that kind... super easy to tig weld, and looks nice even when exposed to the elements, but its heavier, and conducts less heats... guess if my tig was AC/DC id use it:D

Check from ebay. There are few "ebay shops" wich sell aluminium tubing,hoses, clamps everything you need.

I like aluminum. It's lighter, and also will conduct heat a little better than the stainless---maybe keeping your inlet temps a little cooler: I don't know how much this really helps, but in theory, I like it!

Now for the stainless, yes, easy to weld, holds up better, polishes up great (and stays that way).

Your choice 'bro. Let us know what ya decide, and keep us posted on your project.

Later,
