Rear Mount Cold side pics.

Planning a rear mount turbo setup due to wanting to keep all accessories under hood and maintain as stock a look as possible.

Can anybody point me in the direction of or show me how they've routed the cold side piping? I'm not worried about the hotside as that's pretty simple.

No real routing picture in there. What I saw said you ran it underneath the entire way then up the front of the motor? I didn't think there was enough clearance for that.

That's how I read it. I saw the pics but didn't see one where it turned up to the intake.

Thanks for the help!

Re: Rear Mount Cold side pics.

I haven't spent enough time below a third gen, I consider myself a fourth gen knowledge guy more so. Is there room above the k member to route the pipe?

Its tight but if you stay with stock manifolds you can route the pipe up over. Tube k would make it alot better
