      My install has changed, i can dish out more pics, and make a rough list, but most of it was trial and error so im not 100% sure anymore, i can give you a rough idea though but wont have time for a while.

          I've recently completed my IC install. I'll try make a list over the weekend, and add some pics. I know how annoying it is to order hoses pipes etc only to find that what you ordered wasn't quite right, or that you need more... lol

              To the inlet of the IC it's just a 51<76mm elbow joined to the standard hose with a 100mm long piece of alloy pipe.

              Coming from the IC:

              76mm 135deg silicone elbow
              76mm 45deg bend alloy pipe 150mm leg length (approx 60mm chopped from one end)
              76>60mm 90deg silicone elbow
              60mm 45deg alloy pipe (again with some chopped off the end to make it fit)
              The rest is obvious...? The last silicone hose going into the intake is a 45deg elbow cut a bit shorter on each end. Make sure you get the ends of any pipes rolled so the hoses fit on nice and securely. Hope this helps.

                  That's an advert for a reverse manifold, you don't realise how much pipe work extra there is by stock!

                  Nicely done mind

                    I know. But unfortunately funds won't allow a reverse manifold... And I'm starting to get engine conversion ideas for my newly acquired 'runabout' already :S more money down the drain lol

                      Yeah I know it all boils down to the wonga, shame the AAN inlet manifold requires rad relocation really.

                            Can't get the bumper on

                            Bo, newsh, can I ask how much your IC's measure from front to back? Mine is 90mm.

                              I was going to ask if you'd tried the bumper, I had to lean the bottom of the IC inwards towards the car, I'm pretty sure mine was 90mm thick so it should go. Height was quite critical too, if I push up on the bottom of the bumper about 3mm it touches the IC. Have you got the grills out of the bumper to see whats going on? You might have to revolve some clips.
