Then it was on to the intercooler...

Water to air baby!!!

My least favorite part of the IC setup, I had to clamp a 2.0" 45* coupler onto the 1.75" turbo outlet. I couldn't find a bending reducer that would work.

Mockup...

Built a bracket to hold the IC and pump...

Installed...

Completed bracket... It bolts in three points around the water pump. Two of the holes were unused, the third is an actual water pump bolt.

Painted and installed...

Some clamps on the upper pipe and water hoses run to heat exhanger.

Where the reservoir will be.

More hose routing...

Boost leak checked, no leaks!!!

Reservoir bracket...

And installed...

Hose from res to pump...

System overview... DONE

Exhaust in next post...
