Can anyone and everyone post pics of how they setup their intercooler piping. I have all the accessories in the car, P/S, A/C, full battery, air filter, and I am having problems finding a way to route my FMIC. Just post some pics so I have an idea of how i wanna route mine.
You will probably have to cut some holes unless you have a small IC. Im doing mine sunday i will get you some pics.
Having the aie-con still in will make it difficult when I came to fit my IC I found that my A/C rad condenser thing was bust so I just ripped it all out. Plus with the pump too I saved around 15kg in weight.
here's mine

Just like yours I have all the options. Functional A/C and P/S. You will however need a smaller battery
Write up to put it in is here.

I wonder if an Optima red top battery will allow room for the piping? Mine is a lot smaller than the Die Hard that was in there before. The Optima doesn't stick out as far as the coolant over flow bottle.
Well guys, i finished my 2" IC piping WITH the A/C installed back on my ca20et. Here is what it looks like. Tell me if that is not a frount mount or what. I got a new frontbumper for $25 at the junkyard and painted it, cant really tell , but it works.

what's it out of?
you're mean alex... :lol:
hehhe. Its that starion intercooler. I modded it to have both 2" endtanks and to have them comming out of the sides instead of the top. Quite a trick, but still fun.
I am using a Honda style slim battery.
Hey Yellow did you have to cut alot out to make your piping fit? I am using 2.5 and its taking alot of time. So tedius cutting and welding. Not sure if my bumper will even fit back on yet, thats the plan for tmrw. I will snap some pics if i can for the the N/A guys aswell :lick:
