14b outlet...
 
K I got a 14b with the compressor outlet pipe from Dejontool.com.
However I was wondering what you use for the 1st bend since it points up? I know in the tech section they use radiator hosing but I was wondering is there a less ghetto way? I also purchased a 90 degree rubber hose thing from Home Depot (plumbing dept.). Would this hold up? Or will it melt?
Heres a shitty pic (sorry its big)

On the bottom connected to the piping. Thx.

I'm using radiator hose. Im just gonna go and have a pipe made like that thats bent the way I need it so I dont have the crazy piping off the compressor.

That hose will work just fine :)

FYI I use a 14b, but used the outlet from a Turbo Mirage (4G61). The difference is this outlet curves TOWARDS the radiator area making plumbing about 69x easier IMO.

My digital camera is hosed, but soon as I can borrow a friends (next couple days) I'll post it up. In the meantime I found the following pictures:

This is a 4G61T Mirage with an 11B, notice the outlet pointing UP?

This is a 1991 Eagle Talon w/14B, notice the outlet pointing DOWN? Since we have to swap sides w/turbine / compressor housings you can see why the Mirage outlet is bettah:
