help with 2g 16g install

[RayRay32]

Im not sure if Im just dumb or what, I ordered a whole package from FP with the e316g , manifold and o2 housing. Anyway, the guy told me all i needed to install it on my 2g was a J-pipe, I have a greddy piping kit on the car and it just aint working. The lower IC pipe (greddy) wont go on the J pipe, the LIC would have to make a 90 up toward the turbo. What can i do to get this thing on the road. Any comments will help.

I went to a local muffler shop and they built me a lower 2 1/4" pipe to connect to my IC for about $50.00

Its sunday , what I think Im gonna do is hack the LIC pipe and get a 45 radiator hose. I think thats the best idea right now. What do you think?

Thats EXACTLY what I did, you will be able to slip the radiator hose into the stock LICP hose. I used some duct tape and a worm clamp to hold it down. . Make sure you use some duct tape, the first time i didn't DAMN it's a weird feeling when you blow an IC pipe, I almost head butted the steering wheel

I got the LICP done till Monday, but now I am having a problem with getting the J-pipe to fit right. It keeps hitting the fan assembly. Any tricks with getting this to fit right?

Either trim the fan housing some or spring for a slimline fan. I was just gonna trim mine, but the part where the J-pipe was hitting was the middle metal fan motor part-- I'm going to have to use a slimline fan. Right now I'm just doing without that fan and using DSMLink to keep the other fan on all the time.

are the slimline fans slimmer ? For right now I am bending the jpipe or rather denting it so it will fit, I am going to have custom piping done when i get a fmic. O and right now I dont have dsmlink so im SOL there too. I cant wait to run this car.

are the slimline fans slimmer ?

Yes, much. I got mine off eBay for cheap. If I weren't so lazy, I'd have it installed already.

 

[RayRay32]

okay so for now should i just shut my BC off?

I'm not sure what you're asking.
