Custom intercooler piping

[Cool Mr Steve]

Ok, I'm making my own intercooler piping, and I have a stock turbo on my 95 eclipse gst. I have a Johnny Racecar fmic and I am in the process of figuring out how to make the piping work out on the drivers side. The problem is I cannot figure out how to get the piping from the turbo to the intercooler, because the turbo exits toward the passenger side of the car, and it needs to go in the opposite direction. The space where the turbo outlet is is too cramped for a 180 degree bend, and I'm sure if anyone has done this install, they know what I'm talking about. What do I do???

I basically had to run that line right on top of th fmic, making it exit on the passenger side for an easy fit on the turbo.

you said the turbo exits to the passengerside so most likely you have the stock turbo. Youll need to modify the compressor outlet by either cutting and welding a portion of the compressor outlet back so that it faces the driverside or get the pipe that dejon tool sells that i believe is a small j pipe that attaches to the compressor outlet. Either way your going to have to modify the compressor outlet to use that fmic.

Most people have the elbow cut off the turbo outlet, and welded back on the other direction.
