I would put a spacer on and run it on the frame rail then under the head light thats what I did on my gt35r I welded on a 45 elbow on the end of the compressor outlet packaging is smooth as well the shortest path youve gone this far to make your engine bay clean whay ruin it with a big ole tube sprouting out of there

nash your shit would look SO clean with that ffim if clocked the turbo down. but if its really that much of a hassle then i guess try it out. and that looks like 2.5" to me.

looks like you spent real time on your engine bay.....now only to have some big ugly pipe blocking view of the turbo n such....it really screws up all the nice word you did.

Wow, Nash, so you do actualy have a Supra......LOL. I would run it up top like that, I like the different look. I normally run it towards the valve cover then a 45 out the turbo, and a 90 down just behind the rad.

Cutting out a few gentle bends cannot make up for that NASTY right angle bend. Think about it like you're driving on a road course. Taking the Festival Turns out of a track will make the track faster.

Lose the Festival Turns! :)

Nash, I dont mind it but if you want a shorter piping track, why not just eliminate the PS or if you want to keep PS, then eliminate the pump and run a MR2 electric drivin PS pump to get the belt drivin pump out of the way and open up room down below...

reminds me of the legacy gt kits. what will that 180 or 160 degree turn do to flow?


Side note: Is that a brake booster check valve for your pcv system?

my dule oil filters and lines are in the way right by the ic end tank so going under it not an option cause you will see an ic pipe hanging low is just umm ulgy and looks to be poor fit ment

next with the 90 clock down and going along the frame rail again alot fo stuff is in the way


basicly my oil lines are given me griff and power streeing as well


i gonna look into ti tommrow if i cna figure out a nice root wiht out chnagein to much stuff around

wa.
that 1 90 degree bend is going to equate to more feet of flow resistance than the distance your saving. your better off with a few 45 degree bends than throwing a hairpin in there for the sake of 1 ft.

it'd be worth it to just relocate your PS lines or move some shit around down there.
