it wont fit

this is with 3inch pipe





this shows how if i ran a mushroom filter it would get some heat realese/cold air from the vent


this is how it is right now, i just flipped it the other way

 

what about twisting the pipe with the BOV 180 degrees so the BOV sits by the strut tower? Looks like there is enough room.

 

I think the mushroom type with a scoop spoon style directing cold air is the best solution... I will probably be doing that my self next week when I will be changing the hot side of my piping...

OR, Instead of puting a 135 degree silicone coupler, you can cut it to a 90 degree and a bit short to actually fit it in there, and then direct cold air as well again with a spoon style scoop!

 

For the coolant bottle, either weld the bracket onto the crossmember or remove the cruise control box and weld it to the strut

 

i dont want to spend that money on the snorkel scoop, as i alreay have the carbing one, that has a little scoop already, i guess i'll do the mushroom filter.
i should be running the car soon, i'll post up how much pressure drop it gets.

 

did you try this yet?

 

this is similar, I actually have a cooling plate with a similar type of opening to carbing and I have cut a hole on my front bumper (similar to J's style) to introduce cold air in there so it actually acts as a scoop! You might want to try something similar, this will give plenty of fresh air to the intake of the supercharger...

I am really interested to see how much boost you will be using using this setup!

keep up the good work!

 

just got done running it, showed 3.5 psi on my prosport premium electric gauge, yesterday it was 5.5, similar weather, readings were with the peak and hold setting.

 

is that loss or actual boost?!?

how much were you seeing without the IC?!

 

3.5 psi of boost with the intercooler, 5.5 w/o.... 2 psi pressure loss
