Default AC relocation

Just wanted to let you know that it's pretty easy to relocate the AC lines.
This will enable you to install a bigger wastegate on the Inlinepro manifold.

I'm getting my TIAL 44 installed tomorrow. I'll get some more pics up after that.

Correct me if I'm wrong but it looks like you cut and brazed that end piece back on.
You would have to recover the refrigerant and braze for some of the people here i dont think this would be to easy.
The easiest way still is bending it out of the way

I had it done in an AC shop, they did it in 1,5 hours.
If you want a TIAL44 on the IP mani, you won''t get away with bending the lines, we tried it. The wastegate is just too big.

lol, I didn't understand that either

Anyway, I don't want to drop the AC for some reasons:

- when driving in southern spain at 42 degrees C, you don't want to drive with the top open. Close it with the ac on.
- In Holland it can get -10 degrees C in the winter. You want to AC to clear your windows.
