Default Modifying full-race piping

I have a gsr motor with the stock intake manifold and i bought a full-race turbo kit from a guy who used it on a b16. So the upper intercooler piping isn't gonna work perfect. It needs to be modified somehow. Has anyone does this before? Any ideas on what to do? Pics would be awesome too. Thanks.

hit up Full-race.com and see if they can fabricate your piping or send you that charge piping, i believe all you'll need is that single piping to the intake manifold. for more options, i know "Project dc2" of spoolinperformance makes some nice intercooler piping, hit him up about your situation.

well they can fabricate you one. PM "Full Race Geoff" and ask if he can fabricate one for you. there are a list of welders on honda-tech that can fix your problem. full-race, spoolin performance, neukin, RLD-fab, fabworks, etc.

i had to cut mine because i have the victor x. i used a tubing cutter and removed an inch at a time off of each end till it fit. if you call f-r and ask them, they will tell you how much to cut off of each end. they did with me, and mine is all good in the hood.

OK, you bought a full race kit and you cant spend 150-250$ on an IM that will give you ~20 more HP. In case you haven't figured this out, GSR manifolds suck *** in stock form. I think you should hold off on turbo and go back to the basics first dude.
