Default Best way to route intercooler piping for DA integra ???

I'm peicing my turbo set up together and im close to being done, but i still havent got the intercooler and piping because I really don't know how I should route the piping. If you DA guys could help me out on this one with all your advice and how you guys did it. I'm looking for the way with the least modification/money. But im pretty sure all turbo DAs have modifications for the piping.. thanks.

pull the washer bottle out of the car, and the power steering pump, and the airbox, and mount the battery in the back, and it just bolts right in.... LOL.. no seriously, with out the power steering and the washer pump gone you can route the pipe through the hole in the body and around the frame rail. The passerger side is really easy, around the frame rail and through the airbox hole...good luck

another way to cheaply make charge pipes is to use a cheap ebay intake for the cold side pipe, that saves a bunch of money

that would require alot more piping also.. and would i have to remove the a/c right ? I thought about that way, but damn I would have to relocate alot of stuff. I already have an intake which I could use as a charge pipe, its 2.75" though.. I was thinking about the other way of cutting a hole in the subframe so the pipe can go directly to the turbo, but im not really so sure about cutting the body..

I'm going with the full-race intercooler setup. The turbo basically bolts via a coupling into a backdoor intercooler. The other side is just like everything else.
Here's some pics of the whole full-race setup on a Civic http://full-race.com/images/ga....html
