Bit of a problem.Anyone help or have any ideas???
Have a small problem and was wondering if I could get some pointers or help from you guys.I recently had my rx7 rebuilt and single turbo'd with a Greddy T78 turbo kit.I am also running a greddy front mount intercooler and an aftermarket radiator.I'm having a problem trying to get something to fit in front of my turbo but there isn't alot of room to play with.I was wondering if I could get some pointers or if you could post me a few pics of your setups to see what to do or can I fabricate something that will do the job aswell.I've tried my best to get my hands on a greddy airinx filter (even on this forum
) but no joy yo date and a cone filter doesn't fit so it has to be a mushroom filter or something home-made!
Here's some pics of my setup to give you an idea what i'm up against.

Your main issue is the way the intercooler piping is routed. The intercooler you have is for the stock twins. Buy a 90 degree elbow for the turbo and then cut the intercooler pipe and its a straight shot to the turbo. You can then use any 4 inch K&N filter.
I have a 120 degree,70mm greddy pipe ordered that i'm waiting to arrive from japan.I have to alter the current intercooler piupe in order for this to fit but even when I do this I have a small bit of clearance but not enough for a cone filter but just enough room for a mushroom which is why i've been hunting down the airinx for it coz would fit perfect.Any other ideas Jason,thanks.
