you COULD use that, but you definitly do not want to. first off its going to flow horribly and second it does not bend as easy as you think, it only bends to a certain extent and you might not be able to get the angles you need for ic piping. do it right the first time and either buy and IC kit or get a shop to mandrel bend you some 2.5in alluminum piping. you really want to stay away from that stuff.

agreed. I've used it for other stuff also and if you need to bend a 8 inch piece (just an example) it is way to hard to get it to come out right and most times the joint will break.
