thats abig *** intercooler... to bad the charge pipe goes RIGHT over the turbos exhuast houseing. id heatshield/headerwrap the ---- outta the turbo/charge pipeing or run a 90 degree directly out of the T/B to avoid the heat of the turbo.


Other than that its a really nice setup. props!

Hey Thanx Fellas, it's been a bunch of work to get it to the point it's at now (and it's still not done)

Rex, no need for a shield, there is like 3" in between the turbo and charge pipe. Not to mention, there is a water intjection injector right before the throttlebody opening on the backside of that pipe (can't be seen in the pic). The pipe barely has any heat on it after a drive.

I'll get some pics of the cars up tomorrow.

It probably will....just be sure to have another car for when its broken.
I'm turboing by integra soon and I'm ready for pretty much everything to break on it even though all the maintenence has been kept up with. From my experience of helping my friends out, it seems like adding a turbo is like adding 100k mi to a car maintenence and reliability wise. I'm ready for the car to be out of commission and that's why I bought myself a $500 beater. Good luck with it.
