Hi,
In the process of fitting a Front mount intercooler, well i`m not a friend is doing it for me:p , having problems connecting the hard pipes.
The kit is the same/ similar to the greddy fmic, it is an "autobahn88" http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Front-Mount-Intercooler-Mazda-RX7-FD3S_W0QQitemZ250085975129QQihZ015QQcategoryZ52640QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
Can anyone post up photos of their engine if they have a greddy fmic or the autobahn 88, so that we can see how the hardpipes are connected.
any help is much appreciated.
thankyou.

Yes, a lot of FMIC kits require you to relocate the rad
slowboy; yes have moved rad + air con rad. where is yours then? pic plz!
allstaruk; i have read them instruction thanks, but unfortunatly the cheap version, mine, (now i know why!) has no labels. thanks anyway!
PLEASE can you put up a pic of yours?! think i have figured out the passenger side, standard elbow has to be used :3Confused i have GReddy elbow...
Also - i`m being thick now, the pipe running over the engine on the drivers side- whats it called??? where do i get a metal one from????
thank you!
Er I mines in bits in the garage to be honest but I managed to work it out from the pics and a bit of common sense, yes you need yo use the standard black plastic elbow.
Also what pipe are you talking about? Pop up a pic or give a more accurate description of where to goes and what it lookslike
Just to check that you scrolled down the Instructions to the pictures as the car in the photos has the greddy elbow too. :Thumbs-up
Does that kit come with all the pipes you need then?
Seems good value.
Crazy Eddie the car in the photo with the greddy arm has a different hard pipe going to the elbow.
Allstaruk the pipes look the same and they are in the order i thought but they don`t seem to want to line up. serves me right for thinking ive got a bargin, then again it might now i know! i`ll have a look tomoz and get some pics. Its the 2 large hardpipes on the drivers side that dont seem to line up right. i`ll have another go and let you know.
cheers

I have a genuine greddy kit and the pipes look pretty similar they are a pain to get lines up and quite easy to get the wrong way round.
