Default Whats missing from this picture?



Is it just me, or does it not seem to be all there? I can see the charge pipe from the TB, but those other two pipes dont seem to make any sense. Its from an SI.

it looks like you dont have the pipe that runs from the intercooler to the charge pipe that goes to the TB. the other pipe looks like it goes from the turbo to the intercooler

You know about the Home Depot rubber connectors don't you?

Save some money right there. Good for 2.5" piping and comes with clamps!

5 bucks each. They even have a hump hose! I used these at 12psi daily for a year with no problems.

I wouldn't use Home Depot rubber hoses for your turbo setup. You are diffenately asking for problems. Those are used for drains on house pipes not high heat engine temps. They will eventually distort and leave you stranded somewhere. Not a wise decision. Spend the extra $40 for piece of mind, and use the proper hoses your turbo setup requires. Home Depot is

That looks like Greddy piping for sure. The pipe on the top left with the is the pipe that connects to the turbo inlet. That round thing is the air filter.
