Default CRX turbo charge pipe routing, relocation of windscreen washer bottle?

Hi guys,

Has anyone got any tips for the relocation of the windscreen bottle? I dont care too much about the volume of the bottle, so could I either sling it all together or just cut it to decrease the capacity which will give me room for my charge pipe routing. Im sure this has been done a million times before, please can someone post some advice

Thanks

I was able to fit my charge piping past the washer bottle. It wasnt easy, but there is room to do it. Just takes a lot of measuring.

rioninja,

What size piping did you use to squeeze past it?

I used 2" inside diameter, but I'm pretty sure 2 1/4 is doable.

If anyone has any pics of this section of the charge piping it would be most appreciated. I had a look last night and unless I route it under the car it still seems a little tight.

Thanks

Here is my car. Check the end of page 1. I just took the dam thing out. If i need to wash my windshield i just stop at a gas station and use the stuff they have there. Besides, you should always keep a clean EF!!!!

I have a D16 with a T3/T04e on it. I cut out a whole on the sides of the radiator to run the piping. I ran 2 1/4 from the turbo to the intercooler and 2 1/2 from the intercooler to the throttle body. I can still use my factory foglights too.

I ran 2.25" piping through there, but I relocated my washer bottle to the trash can.
