The cold side uses a Turbonetics 90 degree cast aluminum elbow to direct the flow towards the left side of the IC.
Thanks for the comments.

Re: Completed Turbo EF *UPDATE*
So I did some more work and I hope you like the pics, This is how it looks from outside......
before painting the hood duct that helps keep under hood temps down (couldnt spend over $100 on an aftermarket hood)
and after spray painting it. :P
Trans Am fender vent off ebay
Some dirty engine bay pics (during sanding the hood)
This turbo is from Blaast, its a T3/T4 60trim and after installing the ETD traction bars running the D/P and charge pipe were less complicated and not criss cross like before.
The dump tube was also routed back into the D/P
Here is the ebay 1/2 rad mounted w/an EG overflow tank
On the left, mounted on the headlight support, you can see the dual stage boost controller. 1st stage is off the w/g (7psi), and the 2nd stage, which is activated by a neat little lighted switch on the dash, bumps boost to 12psi.
The trans looks new b/c I just cleaned it up when I had it off the car to install a 6 puck Comp Clutch from Xenocron.
Here is the spare D16 block I bought off of AJxr. RayRay gave me the V/C and the head, which he ported himself. The engine stand belongs to HMT's D16Y8-Z6.
The Y8 IM was bought off of Loserkidwac, and I got the 70mm T/B off ebay for $50.
Brand new RC550's off Honda Tech's AnthraxVX
ebay 75.5mm Vitaras
ebay rods not SCAT, but CAT. LOL
Side by side comparison - H-beam vs Stock
The block needs to be notched to accomodate the larger H beams so I did my homework by checking ENDYN's
website.
Went to town w/ a carbide cutter.
Got my BOV off ebay
