charge piping on turbo crx
 
how do you guys get the charge piping round the radiator on the CRX? do you relocate the horns and then cut a bigger hole or feed them under the radiator? any suggestions would be great
thanx :P

or you could go around... But if you using a IC like the starion you can make the cuts in the side and run piping through their..

Air hacksaw or sawzal works good..

I'm just woundering if why do you guys just go around the rad. and cut that stuff up instead of just going around it like what Abaz posted and the why alot of aftermarket turbo kits run their charge piping. Cause I'm getting ready to put my kit on and I was going to route all my charge piping like the why all the aftermarket companies do it through the bumper...up into the fender ( same routing as a CIA would on the passanger side )but basicly like the why Abaz posted. Is it more effecient the way you guys do it around the rad. or is just completely up to me and what ever is easiest for me ? Thanks

Its longer to run IC piping that way, and you have to remove your washer bottle.
