L2R Install Question

[red clipse]

Can I use an install kit from a 16g on my L2R?

You shouldn't need an install kit. Just use AGP's oil feed line, a 1g oil return line & water lines.

Yep.

What about the j-pipe? I know AGP offers an option for a 90 degree elbow. Is that not needed?

Depends on which way you IC piping runs.

I'm not sure exactly how my I/C piping runs. None of my parts are on my car. I have a large Greddy front mount going on. Will I need the elbow?

I'm not sure but I think you will if the pipes are designed to hook into the T-25 you will need to elbow.

NO. The turbo outlet pipe is different for a 16g. You will need either a 90deg elbow welded onto the L2R turbo outlet with the appropriate intercooler pipe to match it or get a 20g outlet to intercooler pipe. Everything else (oil line, coolant hoses/pipes) should work.

I know AGP gives you the K&N filter to put onto their braided SS oil feed line, but does it use the standard 2G routing or does it come from the head like a 1G? If the latter, then why? How about the oil return?

It comes off the head. The reason for this is because the oil pressure at the head is less than at the oil pump/filter housing. The Garrett ball bearing center section can't hold more than 60psi according to AGP. Oil pressure at the pump/filter housing can go well over 100psi on start-up. Oil return is the normal Mitsu type.
