front mount pics needed.
does anyone have pictures of front mount intercoolers with the in/outlets facing away from the core mounted on a FD, not sure how i will route the piping or if it will even work because i dont want to cut holes on the car.
since everything was out i put the intercooler v-mounted just to see how it looks.

I don't understand the question. Anybody with a fmic is not going to have piping that would help you out with the V-mount. It looks like with that set-up your best bet would probably be to run the piping as straight down as possible from the stock piping still showing and not attempt to come around the side. Thats a tough one.

im not doing a v-mount those pics where just for fun, almost all FD front mounts kits have the in/oulets facing towards the engine my intercooler has them facing straight out of the core and i just wanted to see if anyone had pictures of the same style intercooler to get an idea on how to route the piping

since the end tanks need to be modified i decided to v-mount the intercooler i really wanted to see how the piping would look and i could not wait for the aluminum u-bends to get delivered so i made some out of scrap aluminum and paper.

It looks to me like you are putting allot of time and money into that machine. So I would like to share this bit of wisdom. iiGet yourself the Efini-Ypipe!!... I'm sure I can speak for allot of members in here when I say "it's a must have especially when you are raising the boost over stock"
