im stuck on my turbo mod.

i have the turbo kit from greddy and the intercooler piping is giving me big trouble. i dont know where to go from here now. the ic doesnt even match up so i have to some how mod the flanges to bolt up to the car itself. but for now i need to know where the driver side piping will go? do i need to drill a now hole or just run the piping under everything then to the right. if i do that it seems to be pretty low. the passenger seems to look fine. its just the driver side that i am having trouble with.


i have a 4wd wagon 1991 ef.
so any pics will help me figure out what i need to do.

 

did you look in the ef boosted thread yet? theres alot of ideas in there https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=1771468

 

no i dont think i have seen it yet. ill check it out. i hope i scan see the side piping.

 

I went to Home depot and bought a 3 foot piece of mounting steel. It came pre-drilled with holes in it, i cut that up with a cut-off wheel and then bent it to shape. Cheap and worked great.

As for the piping. Are you retaining PS? If so you will need to route it over the PS pump and down where the washer bottle was. However you won't be able to retain the stock washer fluid bottle, you could put in an aftermarket one elsewhere if you desire.

I don't have a wagon, but i could post some pics of how i ran my piping.

 

if you could post pics of it in different positions, that would help out a lot.

thanks.

 

Hope this helps

 

yes thank you.

i really needed pics of the driver side piping.

i wanted to see if there is another way that i can run mine being i had to run it down and under the whole font brace to the turbo.

also does anyone have the issue after the install i cant go past 4k rpm? a cel comes on and the engine dies once i drope down to idle. i cant figure it out. will emanage fix this with also a tune?

 

Do you have some sort of fuel management? A MAP sensor check valve? If you dont you will get a code for running boost with a stock map sensor and your car will go into safe mode

 

thank your for the reply.
im am totally new to this, so please educate me on these parts. i dont know what they look like and what they do exactly.

so will emanage work?
i also have hks evc6, will this work?

p.s. i am a total newb and totally untrained on this car, so please attach pics i am totally lost.

thanks again for any help and being patient.
