<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE(themonkeygoesmoo)</div><div class='quotemain'>i dont know if this has ever been discussed. i searched and came up with nothing soooo i got ahold of a complete set of stock intercooler pipes off of a evo 8, and to my surprise, its almost a perfect fit. Â*
if you are running a FMIC setup, it really almost fits perfectly. cut a couple of the hangers off, turn the horn upside down, and you're good. Â*
the only other modification i have to do is have the BOV flange welded because im not going with the stock evo 8 BOV. if you wanna use the stock evo BOV then there is no modification needed. Â*
another thing is the a/c. i have no a/c due to my downpipe so this wasn't an issue, but it looks like the lower intercooler pipes would be a tight fit through the a/c lines. either way, its almost too perfect. Â*
i took some pics with my phone as best i could with the bumper on and everything. half of the pics got f@#kt up when i tried to transfer them to my pc but here are some of the pics. Â*
