I don't know how all t3t4's are with this problem, but I've got the maxrev mani with a t3t4 57 trim turbo and there's next to no room to mount up an air intake into the compressor. The hard line feeding the clutch release to the tranny is really in the way. I've got a way of running some tight radius 90 deg. elbows now, with the filter behind the rad, but it looks so ghetto. What are you people using? I don't want to go with no filter, so I need somthing there to get clean air to the turbo.

 

problem= worse on b16's with hydro's!
thats what prevented me from mounting my turbo with comp side on the passenger side!
I knew you would have a problem with it

 

I converted the hard hydro line to a ss braided teflon line with a 90 degree elbow. I'll post some pics tonight.

 

i have the same problem, doesnt maxrev sell a filter/intake tube combo?

 

Well, I adapted the fitting that used to connect the hard line to the rubber one. I drilled and tapped it for 1/8" npt and the fitting you see is a 3 an.


I also used a 45 degree elbow on the slave cylinder.

I didn't tap the slave cylinder. You don't need to and the threads are just fine. I checked.

Here's the setup with the intake pipe and yes I have two different colors of blue. I can't read when it comes to color matching

my helper wondering why we're not done yet

 

ahhaa, sweet.!
