I need to know the best way to route my charge pipe out of the compressor. I am running the max rev manifold on a b18b, and the turbo is turned in the conventional direction (compressor on passenger side) Man its tight down there, im not sure if its going to clear with the 3'' down pipe. Pics would be great, any and all sugestions are welcomed and thanked in advance. Allso i have a newer half size PWR radiator that I would like to make work, but it doesnt look like i can fit it to well without cutting the crossmember. Once again, any and all help welcomed

up

 

there are several threads on how people ran there charge pipes. try a search?

 

tried one, any key word sugestions for me? I ran crx charge piping, crx charge pipes. I ran charge pipes, and it came up with a million. I want to ask crx owners becaause there really isnt allot of room between the block and the crossmember.
Any thoughts?

intercooler pipe or intercooler piping

 

it makes it 20 billion times easier with those after market "wheel hop" stopping chrossmembers like the JimFab you'll have all the room in the world for a 5" d/p and a 3" charge pipe...but otherwise your gunna wanna bang the hell outa your stock crossmember and route the charge pipe where the other half of the radiator goes (yes you need to use the half radiator). any more questions feel free to ask i know a lot about my friends turbo b16 crx.

 

i tried more searches, not allot of CRX stuff in there.

Thanks, I saw those, but none of them really hit on where I am having trouble. My problem is the outlet on the comp housing and the clearance between the crossmember, and with the downpipe in there. I tried to turn it around but then it puts the turbo way out in front where the factory rad sits, thats no problem, but the problem lies in the exhaust, when the turbo is positioned like that, the discharge hits the half radiator.

if you take some pictures we might be able to help you out.

also, there is a forced infuction forum where this question might get better answered...

 

Man you guys are treating me like Im new........
I know about the FI forum and I have posted there as well. But my problem is that there are not allot of crx guys that seem to be having my problem, im just trying to get all the help that I can get. The thread has got much more attention here than it did there. Shearches were helpfull to a point, i just want to talk to someone who has the same problem that I am going through.

Thanks
Robert

I slid it in there and the discharge for the exhaust on the turbo sat right against the radiator.
