We wont have any 90s we will be going straight forward into the top of the intercooler.

But if someone did want to put elbows on there, its not really going to make a difference. Your average turbo system has tons of 90 degree bends including the compressor housing outlets, inside the intercooler end tanks to enter the core, and all the several feet of piping to get around the core support. You could most likely end up without any more bending than the stock location throttles if you plan your pipes well, possibly even less bends. But the way we are using it, we will have eliminated several bends and at least 4 feet of charge piping, if not closer to 6 feet.

Attached some examples of our DE billet manifolds in use.

I was thinking from most of the other turbo kits just the difference from their location going to the stock location ... to add this manifold to a existing kit ... you would add 4 90 degree elbows ... I guess it wouldnt be a big difference and you prolly gain more from the intake design than the flow would hurt you.

You could just buy a new intercooler and eliminate that issue.
