Default intercooler pipping pics

does anyone here have pics of a 94-97 intercooler piping on the turbo side with the turbo clocked towards the hood (like the f-max kit)?
I just wanna improve my current piping.........

I would really appreciate that. Right now I have kinda of a hack job when it connects to the intercooler on the turbine side. everything looks really good under the hood, but take the bumper off and damn youd wonder how its not leaking anywhere...........

It's from a 6th gen, but it may help





Sorry I don't really have any good pictures of the compressor piping connected to the intercooler pipe

nice FMIC. So far it gives me a much better idea of how some similar set-ups should look... What turbo kit is that?

hows the clearance on the driver side?
i tried doing it that way but didnt have enough clearance with my drop so i took out the washer fluid resevior since i dont have washer nozzles with my cf hood and just opened up the hole a little. if you dont have abs then you shouldnt need to enlarge the hole

Kinda tight in there just in terms of the piping is pushing up against the power steering rack and the splash guard. As far as clearence for the ground it's fine. I do have a lip that probably covers it up a little bit. I do recall seeing a couple accords with the fmax kit that have "bucktooth syndrome" with the i/c poking out underneath the driver side piping exposed. The lowest part on my car is the downpipe so that would scrape before the piping

If I could see how much was hacked I'll know what & how much I have to hack myself. I did a little bit of trimming in driverside lower hole but just barely enough. The tip of the intercooler was hacked off so everything could fit.
