#65319, "I/C piping"


          

I'm starting to get my stuff together for my turbo I have 14b, 1g side mount intercooler, and a HKS BOV. I have access to a welding machine but I was wondering how to do my piping from the TB to the extremely tiny intercooler outlet. I ordered a 2" to 2.5" reducer to help from the throttle body but I am not sure where to go from there. If anyone can help at all please do. Please keep in mind I am not trying to spend a fortune on this.

Thanks in advance,
Mike

well, i can tell you from personal experience, that you WILL spend as much as if not more, going the "custom" route versus buying a pre-done kit. having said that....

just run 2" or 2 1/4" (no bigger than) piping from the TB to the IC and get a reducer from that to the 1 3/4" IC tube. OR you can have some cutom work done to remove the 1 3/4" inlets and have 2" ones welded on, thats what i did. other than that, "how" the piping is ran is up to you and your imagination and welding skills.

USED TO HAVE...Everything you wish you had, and then some...

You are somebody special Tim, you matter! - from the admins (but nobody likes you, because your username is just like that other guy's, and you whine a lot)

That helps a lot. I hadn't thought of removing the restrictive inlets and outlets. Anyone with other suggestions?
