Anyone have good intercooler piping pics?
I'm running my intercooler piping with my cold air intake but I'm having trouble figuring out how I'm gonna run the passenger side piping. Does anyone have any good pics of thier intercooler piping, I would really appreciate it. Thanks

Just need to remove the washer fluid bottle on the drive side, and the resonator box on the pass side.
Actually... I think newer civics dont have a hole in the body right their? or do they?

Thanks Jeff. No they don't have the holes but it was pretty easy to cut them. My only problem is the cold air intake I have is about 1/8 of an inch to big. I'm goning to have to make a new section where I have my cold air intake, which won't be hard but there is no room for error. That's why I wanted pics, so I could see they angle other people used. I'm also taking lots of pics, so if you want you could use them on the site.

I noticed on Dan's EF he kind of had to turn his IC piping pretty tight to fit into the front area. (I printed out most of your website back when it was up so I could have the information while I was out in the garage. 
)
Anyway, quick question about charge piping. If it's anything like regular intake piping, nothing over the diameter of your throttle body helps. Like the 3" pipe running around most of the little ricers CAI are a waste, is that true with charge pipes? Like say I have a 2.5" opening coming out of the turbo, and a 2.5" opening into my IC, is bigger piping a waste in bettween? Would it decrease velocity during flow because of the bottle neck reaching the IC?

It would probably decrease a little bit, I personally like to stick with the same size all the way to the T-body. But if you guys have to use Intake's as your upper ic pipe, go ahead, it will work.
