my piping on the intercooler doesn't line up to my intake manifold(skunk2) its greddy's smaller intercooler. do i need a new manifold or what? im stuck!

 

it's pretty obvious. The stock gsr mani faces toword the bottom, while the skunk2 faces towards the top. They position the t/b different from each other

 

i heard your could flip the pipe around to make it fit. but if it doesnt get a ls charge pipe.

 

...or just get the piping modified. It shouldnt cost that much....

 

How close to fitting is it? I notice sometimes if you think backwards you can get things done. We ended up putting my upper charge pipe on first then going from there.

 

im going to try flipping the pipe, thanks ... do any of u think i should get the jg manifold or something else?

 

your using the skunk2 IM so you'll need a LS charge pipe

 

would it be any faster if i just used the jg manifold with my gsr charge pipe?

 

the gsr charge pipe will fit only on the stock gsr intk manifold bc the t/b is lower than ls and type r. so if u use skunk2 or jg manifold, u will need an ls charge pipe.
then u will have to cut towards the end of the pipe where the t/b connects bc it is too long. if u want i have a ls charge pipe that has been fitted for ur jg or skunk2 manifold that goes through the stock intake hole of a civic. if u want i will trade my ls for ur gsr charge pipe.i need a gsr charge pipe bc i am doing a lsvtec with a stock manifold.
