QUOTE(99v8Lux @ Aug 17 2008, 04:41 PM) [snapback]1282747236[/snapback] Looks good, but what's with the doubled up piping on the pressure side of the blower? um? there is a 4" inlet, thats the one with the pod fliter, then theres the one that comes of the snail, that feeds to the cooler, then the one that comes from the cooler through the front gaurd (ssshhh) and up to the t/b.??? there is rubber oil hose but that is from the breathers plumbed back into the intake. is that the one? |
