Now ive tried to figure out what pipes are for what in comparison to the real reference picture.

1)red-downpipe-not sure where this goes into
2)orage-ehaust pipe goes into the turbo
3)blue-air intale for turbo
4+5)Light Blue + Purple- Light blue goes into TB of engine what about the purple one?

Please correct me if im wrong or if this isnt the best setup for a t3/t4 turbo.

 

The red one pushes exhaust into the TC. The orange looks to be taking the exhaust from the turbo out to the rear of the car. Blue is for air filter. I'm guessing the purple goes to the compressor?

 

First off that picture is one CAD drawn by a fellow member who made a custom setup.

The 2nd picture is MY car which is a completely different piping diagram.

BigDogg you think you can make a sketch of the piping system you got going in your car because it looks good from here, and i knew it wasnt the same setup as in the cad diagram but it kinda looks similar to a point. Where does the purple connect to in this setup, and in your opinion does this setup look efficinet to you?

 

Red: exhaust manifold to turbine inlet
Orange: Downpipe (turbine outlet) to rear of car
Purple: Compressor outlet to intercooler inlet
Light blue: Intercooler outlet to intake manifold
Blue: ??? My guess is for the compressor inlet but it isn't quite wrapped around enough to reach the compressor inlet.

 

Yes, blue has to be compressor inlet.

Has anybody implemented that kind of piping setup? I kinda like the way the exhaust is routed backwards to keep the exhaust heat away from the intercooler, but that also may result in excessive exhaust gas cooling for that long run to the turbo.

 

I dont have the CAD skills required to make such a diagram. And Dont even want to attempt it on paintbrush.

Do I think its efficient? Well it put out 425whp and couldve gotten 450whp but didnt want to risk blowing it on the dnyo.

BTW those are old shots of the engine bay. It been changed by me quite a few times, here was the last time I took a pic when I completed the setup myself.
