Default SFR or Lindsey Intercooler Pipes

Has anyone had fitment issues with either vendors intercooler pipes when used with a Vitesse Stage 2 Turbo/MAF setup and Forge DV? I'll be ordering a set soon want to make sure that everything is going to fit properly. I'm asking because the fit right now with stock pipes is borderline, and I hate it when things don't fit properly.

I've used both and had to trim the length on the Lindsey. The SFR pipes were perfect but a bit heavier. The lindsey pipes have the BOV fitting in a different location so it's a pain making the stock BOV work.

FWIW I ordered the SFR ones for pretty much the same setup on my car.

SFR.

Lindsey"s are most probably poor copies of someone else's.

We need to spend our money with those that have integrity and make their parts. Need I say more.

lol... that is Miramar billeting bed spread.
I'm still waiting on my MAF to arrive. It's taking much longer than expected.

I'll be back in San Diego at the end of July. Up in Oregon for a little while now.

I think the best ones came from Joe down in Gulf Shores but he doesn't make them anymore. I not sure if he copied them but I'm sure we'll find out.

LOL, good one Ski! DDP actually had all of Joe's old supplies. Then I traded DDP the supplies for a stick of gum.. I will be making a set for my car tomorrow. ps - I won't be copying anybody.
