I like the endtank design on the AHP cores, but the piping is just long. The endtank design on all the short route 1G kits are not optimal, but at the boost levels we run the endtank design is not all the important. At 6psi endtank design becomes more critical. SS and aluminized steel are probably the worst materials for intercooler piping, but they are the most commonly used due to cost. Mild steel is ok for heat dissipation, but it will rust instantly, so you have to either powdercoat it inside and out or use aluminized steel. Straight aluminum is probably best overall for intercooler piping due to it's fast heat dissipation and very light weight, but you don't see it used as often due to it's higher cost.
