i just need a few more mandrel bends to be safe I plan on using my old CAI as my cold side plumbing if i cant find more 2.5" bends i might just go with some PVC on some of the cold side lol

so far 400 bucks not bad :) if anyone has a welder and a spare block I can use to mock stuff up on around NH would be great :)

all parts going on this car

Yes and no, in a ef; it would be to far out. In a 92+ no it should be fine.

I tried it the other way and its just too many bends for my taste. I like it this way and it fits fine, facing the other way it tucked much closer to the block thats true but this way works just fine in my 00 ex i have no ac or ps so there is atleast about 2 feet of room in front of the engine hahah


thanks for the comments guys, i appreciate it

yea its a give and take you know? this way its a little easier to route the downpipe and charge pipe but it sticks out further, other way its more pipe used but tucks closer to the block and flows a little less

Rotate it the other way dude, I don't think it's gonna fit. You might be forced to make some crazy bends if you want this to work.

Porn is for noobs who don't know what they're talking about or first time posters. I must have overlooked it, my bad.

those welds on that dp are disgusting, I mean not that I can weld, but I have three friends who I outsource my welds to and their welds are better than my tuners.

sakpase 06-01-2008 02:35 PM

Re: well here is my build
 
if the welds hold who cares, we don't drive around without a hood, front grill and fenders so everyone can see our setup. As long as it's functional let him ride.

besides it's his first setup.

This car is gonna be sick. and for anyone whining that it wont fit I have a 98 dx that has a ridiculus amount of engine bay space and I still have a/c and p/s. He will have no problems making it fit. I envy the money you have bro. I am paying for my car, cell, insurance and college and I get to buy parts for my build like every other week if I am lucky.

Re: well here is my build
 
so far so good .......... flip that artistic :l intercooler around and just flat black it

D16y7DX 06-02-2008 10:55 PM

Re: well here is my build
 
if he was gonna flat black it anyways why wouldn't he just flat black over the red? Just wondering...But for $420 :6 that is not bad at all. I am just starting my setup and I am already at $135 and I still need a lot of stuff.
