I think there is a thread in the performance section with 3 pages of pictures of peoples engine bays and how they routed their fmic piping.

Get everything but the piping into place where everything needs to be. Mount the intercooler. A quick way to do it is straighten a couple wire hangers out, bend and route using as few bends as possible. Buy some aluminum u bends and cut the appropriate bends, use some silicone couplers to piece them together, make sure everything mounts snug. If it does then weld some beads at the end of each pipe and cut a hole and weld a flange for bov and call it a day. All in all should cost 150-200 bucks. Im gonna be using vband as my couplers but it's more expensive and measuring needs to be spot on.
