Tiago, how did you route that set up? Did you keep ac? I see the condenser but I looked at your hot parts, and it seemed that the crossover pipes to the turbo were routed where the ac pump would be? Did you put the dp under the kmember? Your setup looks pretty good, I am assuming those pipes are long gone now that you have the twin set up huh?

Under the K member both up and down pipes, never had a problem, stock height car..

Kept AC, everything stayed on stock locations.

Looking at it today I can find many other ways to have built a kit with pipes above K. but at the time I was looking for easy and simple..
