Do you have any pictures of the piping? I'm going to order them from JCwhiteny but I need a basic idea of what to get. If someone could post what you did and what you used I'd appreciate it. Thanks. :thumbsup

I used 2.25 inch manderal bends from JCWhitney. You can go with 2 inch depenting on what turbo you are using and what boost you are running. Her is a link to HadesOmega's setup. http://www.imagestation.com/album/index.html?id=4292220115

I cut the sheet metal away on the driver's side of the radiator for the piping to the turbo outlet. This will save a couple of feet in pipe.

Cool.

Also, how did you move your endtank? Did that make it any easier than using the top inlet and outlet?

Do not bother cutting the radiator end tank. I'll get some pictures for you on how I did mine. You're gonna need to cut the piping that comes with stage 1. I'll get some pics up and give you a quick right up.

Cutting the radiator end tank?! No! No! Don't cut the radiator. To the right of the radiator there is some sheat metal. If you cut some of it away you can take the intercooler piping, from the top of the intercooler, right around to the turbo. This will only work if you have the intercooler fabricated like Hades is.

Thanks. I'd appreciate that.

I wasnt planning on cutting the radiator. In my recollection of guys w/ avengers all they did was cut the front facsia a little bit to fit the fmic in there.

I just need to get a visual of what the piping would look like w/ a starion.

Thanks again for the help guys. :D

i thought the starion ic wasn't any better than the 1g smic?

If it doesnt flow better why is it more desirable? Looks? If that's the case I just stick with the 1g I have.

Any other opinons? I never heard that the 1g flowed just as good... :o

more desireable because it can dissapate a lil more heat than the smic, and its a fmic, so your "big ballin" ;-)
