I just bought the Greddy FMIC kit for the stock twins and greddy elbow, now I'm halfway and noticed that the the kit doesn't provide you with the first pipe from the turbo to the ic. It looks kind of weird with the stock plastic pipe to a polished pipe, anyone know where to get that pipe?
Also when mounting the intercooler to the car, did it get in the way of the oil cooling lines? I had to unbolt the bracket and push the lines down with the IC and now it pushed up against the IC, any work arounds????

 

You have to buy an Efini y-pipe in order to have all metal piping from the turbos to the intercooler. You can get them from rx7.com or rx7store.net, if you are not a Mazda Motorsports member.

 

I never had a problem with the oil lines.

 

Are you sure you're not talking about the AC lines? I have a touring 7 (oil cooler on drivers side of the car), but I didn't have to touch the oil lines for my install.

 

Are you talking about the power steering cooler/loop deal?

 

I think he means the power steering cooling loop / line.

 

yeah, the power steering loop deal. My intercooler outlet side sits up against the lines, I believe Greddy supplies an extra one, but I don't know how to thread/attach the lines. If I let the lines sit against the IC, it could either crush the lines or rattle. What did you guys do? My FD was in a front end accident with the previous owner, so mine might be aftermarket....

 

Warning, the radiator mount is very weak and may break off due to vibration and the weight of the radiator. One day, I noticed that my radiator was hanging low on one side and discoverd that the right side mount had broken off.
