From Bood's resto thread.

I have just written my pipe work plans for a chap via pm and this may not suit everyone and i am sure there are different methods but here is mine

Air filter to turbo

.cut telephone hose
.100mm long 60mm od (from memory) insert pipe
.flip second half of the hose to face forward

Turbo to intercooler

.90 degree reducer 51mm (turbo outlet on mine) to 57mm
.57mm od x 100mm alley pipe
.90 degree 57mm id
.57mm od x 200mm alley pipe
.90 degree reducer 57mm to 62mm (think thats the intercooler inlet size)

Intercooler to carb top
.90 degree reducer 62mm to 57mm (think thats the intercooler outlet size)
.57mm od x 250mm alley pipe
.90 degree 57mm id
.57mm od x 200mm alley pipe
.humped silicon joiner pipe 57mm id (i used a humped one to allow for engine movement)

other jobs
.rad had to move one mounting hole to the near side
.i had to cut and extend the top rad hose (used 30mm x 100mm pipe)
.i had to extend my fan switch wires

Mods to fit the Intercooler
.cut off and weld up the 90 degree pipe on top of the intercooler
.cut the side supports off the mounting lugs to allow tight fitment to the renault cross member
.cut off the extra casting on the endcaps so nothing pertrude further than the front face of the intercooler


i used this company for my hoses as the put the swaged ends on the metal ones as well

all this is to fit a 2wd cossie cooler, the 4wd is bigger

:agree:

My 2wd cooler was a pig to fit kept hitting front engine mounts especially drivers side ended up having to change the angle of the outlet on the ic buy tig welding pipe work onto the cooler to get clearance and to sit flush with slam panel
