We got all the charge piping don today . Its kinda crazy as soem owuld say, but it will flow great and any other way would have been a bitch coming off the turbo. so our solution worked out great. total charge piping is only 2 pieces and comes off actually pretty easy and tucks behind the bumper with out any probs whatso ever. tommorow i willpaint everything up all nicely.

Thanks to Franks CUstom Fiberglass for all his help.
heres a pic of the charge pipe off the throttle body



heres a pic of my PWR 1/2 core finally mounted



heres another shot of the pipe off the throttle body installed.doesnt look liemuch yet, but give her some paint and shes good to go



heres a pic of my Kteller 3inch exhaust and my Apexi 3inch N1



heres the final shot of the night . Some might call us crazy but we like to be different.

 

I like the pipe coming off the turbo very creative.
I think you could of used the back door design as well if you got the end tank welded to the back of the intercooler.

EVIL

 

that looks crazy but im sure its actually more efficient that way, there is obviously less area. Good job.

back door wont work . i was gonna try it ,. but the pipe would have went right into my core, my IC is too big.
this way there is less piping to go thru , no hard bends, and flow should work out great with this design . The thing was plagued with is with this manifold there wasnt mmuch to work with to get the piping out. i was gonna face it up and cut a hole and come down thru the fender, but this way worked out much better.. i just gotta put some finishing touches on it tommorow and will post better pics.

 

its just surface rust from the bumper support when i removed it , it will rub right off without a prob. not really worried about it.

 

I like it ! looks good Pete. doing **** different

 

Damn man hella tight install

 

Slick! I was wondering how you were going to solve that problem w/ the oil return line.

 

Nice pete, i like how its a 2pc design that eliminates a few couplings. Holla at me when its startup time

Stop workin on the car and pay your cell phone bill

 

nice...i like the way u think

 

Thats nutty looking Pete. Good luck with the final touches.

 

I like the pic with the PWR installed...looks nice. Let me tell you about those radiator fans your using from Autozone-they suck! I'm not saying it won't do the job because the PWR will keep the motor cool most likely anyhow but be warned that my stock radiator fan worked better then the one you have. A FAL or SPAL would be a better bet but there kinda pricey

 

Nice Post pics when all said and done

 

what kind of piping is that (material/diameter)

 

That looks like a slide I rode at Wet and Wild

No really it looks nice and original

 

Nice . Looks good.

 

ive been using those fans for over a year now, they work great.i have yet to have a prob.
the piping is 2.5 inch aluminized steel.suprisingly its not really heavy.
Josh i changed my cell phone number fool, i gave you the number like 3 times already on your VM and IM.

Very creative.

 

Looks good!

I hope you have solid motor mounts, otherwise that one solid pipe is going to love to shift around and lose the rubber connectors.

^ What he said. Really clamp down on that driver side coupling on the IC.

Otherwise, awesome job.

 

Damn ******* HOT Man...
Love the set-up..Makes me wanna do that to my teg now..
Im running the standard FMIC set-up and **** like that..I like yours though better LOL

 

Interesting Pete. looks kinda funky, we will see how it holds up soon enough.
