Default Integra GSR IC piping problem........pics would be nice

How do you guys route the piping on the driver's side on 96+ GSR's?? The stupid *** washer fluid tank is in the way!! I was thinking of removing it entirely, but if there's another way, i'm up for it. My GSR is lowered, so the piping can't dip below the belly of the car much or that round pipe is going to be an oval...

If you guys could toss in some pics, i'd really appreciate it!!

Mine is run with the turbo outlet facing downwards and the piping staying low in the car, not run through the washer bottle hole. I can take some pics if you want later tonight.

Mine is a Revhard kit, so all the bends were premade and the intercooler outlets are on the bottom. I haven't had any problems with the piping bottoming out and my car is pretty low.

i have a 31x6x3" IC and it fills the center "mouth" of my GSR. I really think the only way i'm going to be able to run it is to dip under the frame or remove the washer tank. I think the washer tank method would be the cleanest way to go..........

Where are the inlets on your IC? Are they centered? Maybe that is your problem.

The pic shown above (where the washer fluid tank is still there) has the inlets offset to the bottom

FYI that pic shows the spoolin performance IC piping

forget the size of the inlets...

ARE THEY CENTERED OR OFFSET?

The pic posted has the tanks offset to the bottom. If they're centered, and not offset, you may have to ditch the washer fluid.
