okay guys, its time to do some stuff. tmorrow im:

fixing my header leak

putting on a different set of hopefully not crappy stock sized injs

mounting the volvo ic ive had for a year and a half in a frontmount setup

and seeing how easily i can relocate the TB using the spearco adapters.

the air will enter directly into the reclocked turbo, go slightly to the dr side to clear the alternator bracket, right over the thermostat housing, then it will make an 80 degree mandrel bend down towards the bottom of the car, probably angled over to the passenger side of the car and enter the volvo intercooler. it will then exit on the drivers side of the car, come back under the core support, and go over the header where heat shielding will be used. it will then make a 90 degree turn into the throttle body, which will be relocated down about, id guess 6 inches or so, and then the relocated throttle body will feed into the spearco intake adapter.

Hey, I like this idea. Please post some pics of installation and the after product. I'm very interested for a cheap intercooler setup. Thanks
