well I figured it out thanks to gildardo and the others. Here are some pics for future referance when other people do a search for old school trust intercoolers. The wierd part about this is that the freakin bov is on the bottom of the car 
oh well here are the pics.

dude, that's so you can get an exhaust shop to bend you up a pipe that connects to that outlet one on side and onto your exhaust on the other end. make it sound like no bov exists

why would you do that?? Sleeper affect??? I guess I've heard of stranger things but my car is no sleeper. I have silver racing stripes I got it painted that way a while back when I owned this car the first time now that I'm about 4 or 5 years older and now own it for the second time I think I would have liked it just a sleeper however I do like my stripes and probably plan on keeping them. The other problem with haveing a bov way at the bottom is now I gotta rout a freakin' vac line all the way to a vac source.

not for sleeper. although that would be cool... iirc, the exhaust flowing past the bov outlet would create a l'il vacuum that would help get all the air out.

that car has a t04 on an hks manifold, if you have something else, the piping will be different.

Hey,
Great thread, Just a quick question I have an intercooler setup like this, going to make the piping. I was wondering are you guys using 2.5 or 2 inch.
Thanks

I'll check the size of the piping tomorrow and post it. Gildardo, I tried that configuration today but it didn't fit??? Well the part that didn't fit was the staight pipe that goes to the outlet of the intercooler. The hks bov must be aftermarket because without it, it would work I think but with it it is just to big to fit in there. I'm going to try better tomorrow and see whats up and will post the results of that.
ps. thanks for your help as well j9

well the long pipe has a pov on it so I have to keep this configurations however I was able to fit it in there without the couplers so it may fit in there with the couplers if I where to pry my *** off. I'm going to post what works for me in the end when I get my turbo back.
