? for ya. Why do people/you run the charge piping into the firewall and then to the TB? Is it due to room, fitment in relation to the hood, better flow and cooling?

i think its for room ,to allow for bigger IC pipes , and its common in liquid-to-air intercooling applications . A local camaro is doing the same thing but is twin turbo

It's almost always to run the charge pipes to a Air to Water intercooler which is usually quite a bit bigger then a Air to Air intercooler. It sits usually where the passenger seat would.
Car looks great man!! GJ

I was wondering why you were selling all the procharger stuff. This makes sense though.
