I kinda pieced my set together and went with the greddy tube that kinda goes flat to fit under the cross member. Just looking at that part makes me scratch my head and wonder if its gonna hurt later down the road. Should I go a different route? Here is the manifold

 

Look down the page, at Greg H 's build, same manifold, and his first post has a link to more pics I think, or if you want more specific, I have alot of pics of his engine bay and such on my camera i can download.

 

This is the best picture I have of mine right now.

 

here is another:

 

I see how its coming in but where are you coming in from(fender well)? This greddy pipe goes under the front support and comes up inside the engine bay.

 

 

I have a few pics of where his tubing comes through the fenderwell, but they are on my other computer, I will shoot them up on here soon for ya!

 

So sorry I didn't back to this sooner, and I thought I had more pics, but the piping wasn't there on that side when we did the head gasket.

Heres the best one I could find.

 

Love the hood prop.

which one, the broom handle or jack handle?

 

I have a peakboost mani but it's about the same. I converted my intercooler to backdoor and it worked great, just had to cut some of the front area for the piping. I have a 90 degree coupler out of compressor housing and then a 90 degree into the intercooler. Hard to explain but this is the only pics I have, sorry for it being so far away on the 2nd one:

 

Did you weld that support arm in there just for the radiator? Thanks for the pics btw...

I'm considering doing a side exit on that side...you thing both 3" and 2" exhaust pipes could fit around that charge piping in that area?

Yeah, that was for reinforcement. Oh yeah, I forgot to mention that I had to eliminate the hood latch with that wastegate placement.

A side exit on that side would take quite a bit of fab work. I have a lot of stuff in the way over there (traction bar, coolant lines, etc..) so I couldn't.

 

Yeah I had to ditch mine as well. If you dont mind me asking...What did you guys do with your IAT sensor? Did you leave it hanging or fab up a spot for it on the charge pipe?

? The IAT sensor attaches to the intake manifold...

 

I'm going to assume you have a stock intake manifold then? Im running an aftermarket manifold that does not offer a mounting place for the IAT. I remember talking with Tony Palo about it when I was having issues starting the car a couple months ago. At the time I was just told to at least have it plugged in. Is this what most people are doing? I'm running Neptune rtp and want to run around 500-600hp at the track. Would it be beneficial to me by having it mounted?
