help n advise needed

hi to all expert here i need some help n advise pls help me thks.
i've make up my mind to TC my GA16DE but i would like to customs make by DIY so i need some advise from expert here for the piping for the intercooler.
wat's the material of the pipe should i use?can i use aluminium pipe or do i need to get the cast iron pipe?or stainless pipe?
wat abt the down pipe from the turbo to the exhuast,wat material should i get for tat?i believe it should b cast iron as it's more hot air then the intercooler.
thanks for all the reply n advise in advance here

use stainless steel piping...some use aluminum, due to its heat dissapation, but i dunno about all of that.

i have a stainless steel downpipe as well, but it doesnt HAVE to be stainless...

it can be a paper snow cone... but generally you want to use steel there.

haha. he was being lackadaisical (haha ive been wanting to use that word all day!)
basically, hes saying you can use either a mild (preferably coated) steel, or if you have the money, get it in stainless, it'll last longer and look VERY nice when you polish it

search the board here. there are no HKS parts like that that will even work on a b14.

you can use mild steel.

if you don't buy a hotshot kit, the whole kit is going to be custom work...........there are no prefabbed parts except for the intercooler, manifold, and turbo. that's it. ic pipin and everything else iwll have to be custom.
