Default EG Fog lights vs. Intercooler Piping
I want to keep my OEM fogs on my EG.....is there anyway I can route the piping to do this?

Really depends on how the intercooler is setup, what do you have?

Well nothing yet.....but since I am only going to run 8 psi or so I'll get a smaller IC.....maybe 16-18'' core size

I've seen a couple EG running a FMIC with the factory fogs. Depending on your setup you should be able to work around them.

With a smaller fmic it would work but with something about the size CCA cooler I doubt you could keep the fogs.

If you could route your pipes without going around the frame of the car, you could do it.

flip the intercooler upside down, making the in/out of the intercooler on the top.

that is what I was thinking. Something with rear-facing outlets and relatively short.

As someone said above it's very difficult with something like a CCA intercooler; unless you get very creative with your charge piping. Lots of bends. Hope you like to weld.
