i might just go with bigger piping that matches the intercooler. I should have monies soon when the shell gets sold.
Today I drove down to sand diego to trade teddy for the rotors, and wow they are hella clean! SO stopped by jasons house too, and he wanted to play airsoft battle, and he shot me in the head like 5 times. Iono how u guys shoot those things, it doesnt even shoot straight, it like curves everywhere, jason gave me the crapy guns..

so I drove back, took 3 hour drive cuz traffic !!! Overall spent 30 bucks on gas round trip ..I go to kragen to buy sealant..damn..all my money is gone.... Then Acid Angel calls me, and he heads over to my pad, and we start to DO WORK. Took apart the stack i built, and cleaned off all the sealant and redid everything with the new pair of rotors, and bam it was finished by 130am. hella nice. Just need to bolt on all the manifolds and lines now..

I made a mistake, my piping is 2.25 and intercooler is 2.5 outlet.

The 2.5 coupler would be perfect. My friend said homedepot has amess of coupler, imight check that out later, if not Ill PM ya 87 t66

i would assume the plugs at the end of the harness are for the secondaries but don't quote me on that.

i think i have a 2.25 to 2.5 greddy coupler, and a whole bunch of other 2.5 inch ones as well. they are all super thick 4 ply silicone.

im planning to run the IC piping from the TB thru and under the powersteering as youcan see. Thats not the actual setup im gunna run with in the pic yet, just a brain storm.. I need to get a Greddy TB portelbow port thingy, to fit the coupling in..or have it welded with 2.25 pipe... hmmmm BRainnstorming....... or should i just fluck it and use the TMIC temporary for breaking in the motor....
