Default My new IC pipe. NON traditional style.

Wanted to make the cold pipe as short in length and easy on the bends as possible for something a little different from the normal IC pipe routing and be more effective and efficient.

Why wouldn't you do a backdoor style IC setup? That would be more effective and better looking than what you have now. The rest of it looks pretty good Wade.

Oh an watch out for that pipe rubbing on the rad support. Maybe you could put some rubber along the metal for the rad support????

it doesnt rub. I had the IC already running IN and OUT side to side. I didnt want to block off the side. If you look, the back of the endtank is DIRECTLY infront of the radiator.. so back door would NOT work out man. i dont want an offset IC. thanks anyways

Actually you back door the driverside. That would eliminate about 1.5 ft of IC piping and get rid of that routing job you got there on the driver side. I think you are thinking that I was talking about the passenger side mang.

that sheet metal is to block off that entire side of the car and i also boxed in the radiator on that side to allow for better cooling.

That sheet metal will actually kill off most of the air flow through the intercooler. Fresh air has to flow through the IC core, but the sheet metal is really preventing that from happening
