Default Intercooler and piping options

Hey guys new to the site. I own a 2003 GS300 that I知 about to swap. I already have the motor/transmission and just about everything else I need to do it. The one thing I need is a front mount intercooler. What options are there for a quality intercooler and what piping is everyone using? Can you make it work with a universal pipe kit or is custom a must? I値l be using the stock twins for now and upgrade later. I知 leaning towards a Treadstone intercooler if anyone has fit one.

Common bolt-up option is the Greddy that includes the pipes for the Aristo setup.

I'm running a treadstone and im happy with it. i believe its three inches thick and has the cast end tanks that has the airflow dividers built in to help direct airflow up thru the upper portion of the intercooler. I have an air intake temp gauge which is a thermocouple and the intake temps hold pretty steady. but im also spraying boost juice on boost.

how do you have it mounted? Any pics? Did you use a universal pipe kit or have custom pipes done?
