Default So close but need advice on turbo install*pics*

well I installed my turbo into my 02 civic ex but I ran into a few problems. One, the Ic pipes going over the core are rubbing the condensor so im going to shave some of it off(no prob). 2- the last IC pipe that goes to the compressor won;t fit between the motor mount and fan shroud. I was thinkning of cutting some of the shroud since i have some room still so the pipe won;t hit the blades. anyone else have any ideas? here's the link to Pics instead.http://www.7thgencivic.com/for...96459

oh and before you ask, the reason the IC piping is going back over the core is that the ABS PS and windsheild washer tank are in the way to route it the other way.

I'm not quite sure what your question is...

If it's about hooking your piping up to the compressor... looks like you might want to get a 90 deg silicone elbow and also shave off a little bit of the fan shroud... you should be able to make it fit...

Part of the challenge of installing a turbo kit is making **** work... that's half the fun! What fun would it be if it all just bolted up?

a good workaround would be to get a slimline pusher or even puller fan
