Please help I am looking extremely seriously into buying this car and doing the swap all I need to know is that if I can use the pipeing and intercooler that come with the engine or if they even come at all?

Yeah, why not.
If it comes in the front clip, its part of the motor... why not use it.
Sorry if I may sound like a CYBER punk
But if you ask a stupid question, you're gonna get a stupid answer <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>
But yes, you can use it, you need to have all the piping, but sometimes I IC might not be working.....so you'll need another one or FMIC

If you decide to go with the stock SR SMIC (or any FMIC) you will need to cut a hole large enough to allow the pipes to pass through. I found this easiest to do by first using a drill to drill a few holes then I used metal cutting shears to it the shape and size i wanted. Although one bolt might not line up, the SMIC will pretty much bolts in place and holds well. And like KidZelda said, its probably easiest to buy the entire front clip which comes complete with all you need (this is what i did). The clip also gives you lots of spare parts tha come in handy when doing the swap. Unstable-Hybrids does carry essentially all the parts that come on a front clip but without the bulk of the frame.
