They are pricey. From what i recall they bought Tims intake tube (cooler tubz) jigs, i dont think you will find anyone else building them right now.

That's all I seen from them but I'm still sporting the factory cooler too. Honestly the only piece worth anything (keeping a stock cooler) is the piece from cooler to intake plate. The other side is just looks. Your still bottle necking the air from the turbo when it meets the cooler.
If memory serves me right.....I don't think I gave much over 300$ for my stainless piping from Tim.....shipped. Then again he made all his jigs and tools to make these too. I would think the folks with it now have to make up the coin given to get them. It does seem quite the mark up.

For what it's worth.....mine shined towing. My egts fell quit a bit.....like a 100 or so :? It's been a while since all that and a lot of changes have happened to my truck. The single best improvement was the 60mm GDS compressor and 14cm exhaust housing for cooling. There are other choices tho.

I thought Sam, ASA Modifieds, bought Tims business? Those looked like his tubes though, even painted.

Yep, I heard Tim say Sam Ayres bought them at sop one year. Wonder if pusher got ahold of some and copied them?

i may be wrong but a person can make their own intake tube(filter to turbo) or buy one..the IC tubes are hard to find at a good price and pusher seems to be the only people to make all the tubes with out getting a bigger cooler...thanks for all the ideas guys

My home made ones seem to be working OK so far. Made from 1/16 wall 3 inch 6061. Multiple cuts and welds to make bends.
Then painted inside and out.
