so this guy has a banks intercooler that was slightly damaged and he was going to sell it to me cheap. he said that i would need some sort of bracket kit for it. where can i get this bracket kit? also, i already have afe intercooler pipes, will they work? i dont see why they wouldnt but wasnt sure if i had to have the banks pipes

Banks uses factory intercooler inlet/outlets IIRC. I had one on my GMC and it had stock pipes but I would call Banks to make sure.

My banks intercooler has the banks piping, it looks like its all 3" piping and uses a reducing coupling at the y-bridge. I am not sure if the bends in the piping are any different than stock though.

On my lbz the banks i/c worked with stock pipes, and banks ds pipe. No extra brackets. There were some mounting bolt holes that the stock bolts wouldn't fit Iirc.
