Anyone running a Single and Blitz FMIC?

Is anyone on here running a SIngle Turbo with a Blitz FMIC? I am getting the GT35/40 if anyone has that and a Blitz FMIC to be specific. But since Blitz does not offer a Single Turbo pipe for their FMIC, how did you do it? Did you just get a custom pipe made from an exhaust shop? I'd really like to keep the pipe looking as close to the original pipes as possible, I don't want to have to get some nastly looking pipe for it but if I had to then so be it. Also does anyone have pics? Thanks, Scott

I run a T-78 with the Blitz FMIC. The pipes that are shiny in the pic come from the Blitz intercooler kit and the dull ones are from Greddy. All the pipes are designed to line up with the stock turbos (from the intercooler) and to the stock intercooler (from the turbo) so they match up perfectly. I plan to custom make some piping to straighten everything out and reduce the total volume of the piping. I have to admit I like the look of the curved pipes though.

Digging up an old thread of mine.....I have my Blitz FMIC and a GT35/40. I alm trying to figure out how to make this system work together.

Here is a pic of what it looks like. Does the GT35/40 sit around the same location as a T78? Do you think that a Greddy Cast 90' Elbow would work to adapt these together, like people do with a Blitz FMIC and a Greddy T78?

Thanks,
Scott

Looks like the turbo is in almost the same position. The elbow might work but I agree with TurboFD, get some custom pipes made. You'll probably need to have the inlet on the intercooler cut and pointed toward the turbo. Make it a straight shot from the turbo to the intercooler.

I guess the only problem is that you can't bend pipe for the really sharp bend directly out of the turbo outlet. Usually those parts are cast so you could still use the greddy part.

I'll be doing the same for my setup soon, I'll send some pics once its done.
