Yeah.. That charge pipe isn't going to work... I can chop it an inch short and it will work. Anyone have a quick and easy way to put a new bead on the end of an intercooler pipe?

Tight fit! Good thing you're using silicone hoses. Rubber hoses would've made maneuvering that pipe into or (out of) place a PITA without some lube.

Wait, what kit? I thought you were getting just the turbo? Refresh my memory, where did you order it from and what all are you getting?

I'm so stoked you and a few others are going VMIC lol. It's so efficient.
