Default 99-00 Si owners with DRAG gen 3 Turbo kits I need your help

Did anyone have a problem with the pipe from your intake manifold fitting right? mine wont line up to fit through the whole where my intake was and the bov wont sit so you can close the hood I cant figure it out alos what parts did you have to buy extra cause i can seem to find the fitting for the oil return that you weld into the pan and the return line Also what is the metal elbow pipe for? Thanks

Hmm, welcome to DRAG quality...

Sorry to hijack your thread without much info, but every Drag kit i've seen was missing one or two major components, fit poorly and/or had some sort of damage. Nothing against DRAG dealers, but the company itself needs to really invest a few more dollars in their kits and a lot less in advertising.

Your main intake pipe will not go to the whole where the stock intake was. There should be a horseshoe(180degree)pipe that comes of the intake side of the intercooler, than your intake tube will go to the inside of the framerail .
Hope that helps.

blue99turbo is correct... the top pipe w/ the blow off valve does not go through the stock airbox opening. It connects to the "U" shaped pipe via the black 90 deg connector right in back of the radiator overflow reservior. I'm assuming the metal elbow you're referring to is one of the cast aluminum pieces that says DRAG on them? There are 2 pieces that connect the air filter to the compressor inlet. Here's a link with a pic that will help you... good luck!

The 1/2" diameter pipe is the oil return that you were looking for earlier...

the small 1/2" diameter pipe is to be welded to your oil pan in a posistion that it can reach your oil outlet on the bottom side of the center of your turbo housing. you then use that flimsey "Garden hose" that they supplied to attatch the two, clamp them up good with hose clamps, but i suggest skipping this all together and going with a threaded bulkhead and stainless steel lines.........trust me, can we say oil leak?
