Here is more pics of the piping, i only used what came with the cxracing kit.

Blower it intercooler



You really have to ct and weld if you want it to fit and flow as good as mine did. I had no clearance issues and even had the cobra fog lights.

I sold my piping to a local guy and he made 20hp over what he was making with his unwelded cxracing kit.

You have more pictures of the blower to intercooler piping? I'm having a hard time picturing how the picture you provided above makes it to your blower.

And how hard was it to get the pipes back in after you welded them? I love the way it looks with welded pipes

Thanks Ox...didn't realize you had the piping tilted up coming off the intercooler.

Why do so many people cut the bumper support instead of tucking it between the support and radiator? I know turbo kits tuck them and they're the same size intercoolers as the CXracing ones.

You have to either take the front bumper off or put the car on a lift to get the passenger side off but it's pretty easy.

It is getting a 6" lift, new boondock bumpers, Nfab nerf bars, 35" tires, built engine with ported 3v heads and custom cams with a whipple pushing 20-25lbs on E85. Should be done by the summer.
