Do I need an Elbow to connect J Pipe to LIC Piping?

[ProjectTalon130]

I will be going from my stock T25 to an Evo III GT Big16g and from what I've read nothing touches on this subject but the pictures seem like both will not meet up without an elbow of atleast 45 degrees if not 90 degrees...will the J pipe really connect to my Dejon Tools "S" shaped Lower Intercooler Pipe that I had running to the T25? thanks guys.

It certainly won't since you'll need a lower pipe specifically made to connect to the J-Pipe. DejonTool sells a complete kit for these under the part number LIP 2GB (us the 2.25"). More info can be found under the 2nd Gen Sidemount I/C and pipe section:

Alternatively, if you already have a J-pipe, you can buy the lower connection from Road Race Engineering. You can find more info on that here:

Please note that if you buy the RRE lower pipe, that it would be best to spend a few bucks and buy their J-pipe as well since I had fitment problems with mine not being a matched RRE set. It works, but it wasn't very fun.

Hope that helps,
