Whats up honda-tech? About a week away from finishing my integra and I am leaning towards having an ac/ps turbo car due to the fact that I am moving to Texas. I am custom fabricating my own downpipe, dumptube, etc and I am just trying to get different ideas on how I should clock my turbo and the shape I need the downpipe to be. I am wanting to go 3inch but if its more work than it is worth then I will go 2.5 then 3inch at the end of the downpipe. So in short, I could really use some help with visual ideas. Please post pics and let me see your work of art! Thanks to all

So your building th manifold as well I'm assuming? IdeLly putting the compressor away from the raditor is best but might not fit. You can Do a sidewinder style manifold to retain ac/ps or a ramhorn or if you get really creative you can do a topmount but will require some skills. I personally run a spa cast top mount with ac/ps in my dc2 gsr with no issues at all and ice cold air making good power

Sorry about not posting my setup. I already have the manifold, just not sure about what the best way to route the downpipe would be and if 3 inch would be fine or 2.5 to 3 inch.
-b18a1 engine w/arp headstuds and new headgasket
-InlinePro stainless steel manifold
-garrett 50 trim turbo
-synapse wastegate with no elbow
-hks bov
-godspeed intercooler with misc. piping w/t bolt clamps
That should be enough info to answer my questions but mainly I am just looking for pictures so that I can visualize what I will need to do.

Turbo-ls, do you have any pics of your setup. I dont have a/c on my car now so Im not even sure about the space I will be working with.

Well the inline pro manifold was designed to work with the a/c so if you wanted to use it put the compressor to the paseneger side and when makgin a DP your going to need to do pie cuts and alot of welding in order to make even a 2.5" fit so might as well do a 3" if your going to go through all the trouble. it can be done so long as your running a 5 bolt ford style turbine housing and not a 4 bolt

here is a pic with DP off


This is an older pic before i deleted abs and some other work but to give you an idea
