Nice clean up. Why do you run the intake hose so close to the downpipe? It seems like there just has to be a better for it.

QUOTE(uzthedentist @ Jan 7, 2006 - 6:17 PM) [snapback]375759[/snapback] its the shortest route. It never gets hot with the heat shielding My intake pipe takes a similar route. People have to remember that the air is moving EXTREMELY fast through that intercooler pipe when the car is running. Even if the pipe gets warm, its not enough to materially change the air temperature except possibly at idle...and then who cares? -------------------- QUOTE(lagos @ Jul 10, 2006 - 1:55 PM) [snapback]454118[/snapback] i know your trying to do the right thing for your motor, but this is one of those times where you should just trust the guys who have had their swaps for a while and have done a ton of research into this. |
