Well I guess they are more of the installed product as opossed to install pics, but either way here you go. The intercooler is a eBay special, actually very good quality. It has a 21x7x3" core and I'm running 2.5" piping.

 
 
 
 

The difference with my upgraded turbo is incredible... I really wish I had done this sooner.

Hey Rocket! Looks pretty good. Did you end up doing the 11/14 turbo?  Gus.

Thats the radiator hose that was on the car...idk it works? never bothered with it.

The thing plugged in is the intake temp sensor that my standalone ECU needs to accurately read intake temps

Rocket, you did your's a little different than I did mine and I did stainless 2.5" pipe and an altered Starion IC.

  http://www.cardomain.com/ride/546031/5  

I ran the pipes the other way.  Huge difference though.  My setup is for sale, but hoping the buyer wanting the whole package comes through   ;)   He knows who he is!

Hey Cory-
Just out of curiosity, how much are you looking to get for your IC setup?

Well...the individual on this board actually, that is looking to purchase the entire car is also the person looking to purchase the whole hard piping system and IC.  As soon as I know the for sures on that purchase I can update everyone.  Sorry Russ you are 3rd right now.  Sorry for thread jacking, I have bad habits.

Sorry I did not take measurements on the piping. It really depends on the size of the intercooler because if it was any longer you would probably have to have gone through the fenders. I tried my hardest to keep it as short as possible. What I'm trying to say is you kind of have to figure it out as you go for the specific intercooler that you get.

Cory,

I decided to run this way because it was closest to stock and I was able to make it work really well with the hardpipe I welded up with the BOV flange. When I swap to a BP I'll have to switch the piping around the other way as the intake manifold is totally different.
