Is the down pipe supposed to sit really close to the distribuitor. Can you guys show me some pics on how you did your intercooler piping I'm having a hard time figuring out how to get back to the TB. Thanks

ya should bea really close if U dont mod the pipes. They have some stuff you can use to coat the disty to protect it from heat. Check out the turbo probes on probetalk. And the red turbo mx3 here.

This is how close my pipe is to the disty. Never even came close to melting.

And using all 3 pics u can kinda see how i ran my inter cooler.
This is how i ran it when i had the old intercooler.

And this is the NEW intercooler but it pretty much run the same way..just hacked the pipes shorter.

its is a wise idea anyway to invest in a roll of DEI header wrap.. just wrap ur downpipe to protect ur disty from heat
