There is more than one way of doing it. The ASN boy use 90deg piping straight from the FMIC. On SCN they tend to use 45deg piping from the FMIC as forge do in there BIG race FMIC. You can also either use 76mm piping all the way to the map pipe and charge pipe then step it down. Or as I am use a 45deg 76mm to 63mm reducer from the FMIC and the 63 mm piping the rest of the way.
Here's the forge fitting instructions from forge http://www.forgemotorsport.co.uk/media/FMINTLCR.pdf
Going down to 63mm gives you much more space to refit the bumper cover and possibly fog lights.
Have a good read through the links posted and see which way you want to go. I would highly recommend reading the links!!!! :smiley:
