Can a few of you guys post your engine bay/under car pics of your installed intercooler piping please? I bought the TurboXS pipe set and having a hard time placing EXACTLY where the pipes are supposed to sit i.e. angle, bends etc Its a 4 piece set w/o instructions.

 

I'll be using this when I install mine in a couple of weeks

I Have not compared the two side by side as of yet, but will very soon. The Turbo XS is obviously a bit more solid, as it's aluminum, and I believe the diameter of the pipe is a bit larger. However it still uses stock battery and intake locations, so I don't see there being a huge difference in flow. When I install this I will be placing the AMS LICP that I have, instead of the Turbo XS one. There is a diameter difference there.

 

Big diff in the LICP but as far as the top one goes....its more of a bling bling thing but the set comes with MUCH better couplers than stock and t-clamps too

 

whats there fmic like?

 

The purpose of intercooler piping is to reduce the unnecessary bends from the stock unit which increases response. Faster spool up means more torque. Replacing an UICP that is routed for stock battery will do basically nothing except get rid of those crappy squishy couplers. O yea and as mentioned the bling factor

 

i have the buschur U+L IC pipes and the upper is alot shorter than the stock routing. also the ID is larger so i know it did something for me. prob not much now seeing im still on the stock turbo, but when i upgrade it will prob help out more. i completly agree with rev, a stock style aftermarket IC pipe is completly useless
