hey mate heres mine, its a ef, but should be the same.
Image
there was no cutting at all, so piping goes from plenum to down and forward to the cooler
Image
and turbo side also goes down and forward to the cooler.
heres a shot showing how the piping from the hot and cold side meet the cooler
Image..

pics aren't the best and theirs MUCH easier ways to go about it, but mines getting engineered so no shortcuts

not really, its not half as bad as it looks, its more so the silicon is 2.5 inch stretched to fit the throttle body on that side

I have a slight kink in one of my silicone joiners. I haven't felt any difference in power output from it. Then again, I'm not revving the buggery out of it on a daily basis so I wouldn't know for sure.
