charge pipes pictures please

ok yes i know what they are and yes i am going to be making them out of mandrel bend tubing. The reason im asking is for pictures of how ecotec people ran there charge pipe from the turbo to the intercooler. i got everything else just need that. I would prefer if they were under the car. thanks.

Here ya go. This is a manual so if you have an automatic your going to have to run them a different way under the car.

Have you had problems about clearence issues with running your charge pipes that close to the ground?

None what so ever. I have my car lowered on KYB AGX struts and Eibach Pro Kit springs too not to mention I live in Pennsylvania and the roads are freaking horrible here. They have never scratched once since I put it on. If you mock them up so you work from the intercooler to the turbo and but it directly up against the oil pan you should have alot of clearence. I also am using 2.5 inch piping. The last pipe before the turbo could have went up alot sooner than it did also but i had to clear the axle boot.

exhuast clamp on the bottom??? dont be surprised when you pressure test your pipes that it may leak. If you can get away with it great unless im mistaken and thats not on the charge pipe.

I siliconed the gap around the inside of it. I was a minor fix till i got another coupler since i came up one short. I probably should throw it on since I got one now.

I posted about 2 months ago on the same subject and i didnt get too many responses. The only real way to run it is like mine or you can go through the engine bay. That is if you can clock you turbo to accept the ic pipe from the top.

Not trying to thread jack but what size are you charge pipes, turbo outlet, and intercooler inlet/ outlet sizes. I am concerned about mixing and matching diffrent sizes.



Re: charge pipes pictures please

Yes lets! For starters how do you get the intake on the turbo with the heater core lines in the way?
