Intercooler piping and fog lights?? 99 front end
 
I've been lurking the board for the past 2 months and finally decided to join. I'm looking to turbo my 96ex w/ 99 front end conversion and have a pretty good idea on the route I want to go.

I currently have fog lights and was wondering if they would be alright or if they would get in the way of the intercooler piping. Sorry if this is a dumb question but I figured I should find out before I started buying parts. Thanks

With a large front mount 28-32, you usually have to scrap the fog lights. If you have a shorter one, just move your radiator over a bit and the pipes dont have to run around the front end/radiator support.

---- the fog lights. just give them to me and run a big ass intercooler. lol. jk.

depending on how you run your pipes and what intercooler you have, you might be able to run the lights with the piping.

if you run the JRC / CCA style ICS you will need to flip the intercoolers upside down so the endtanks are on the topside, its a little tricky but I think you could do it.

I have a 93 civic and i was thinkin of how to do it with my OEM fogs...I was thinking maybe a 12''-16'' silicon bend would make it much easier?

I would havne't 100% hard pipes..but oh well
