HELP with FMIC install

[Arsenic06]

Hi!

I have started my personal project of installing a FMIC on my msp from a universal kit.

I took everything appart, bumper, crashbar, oem piping, etc and now i'm at the point where I have to figure out a way to mount the intercooler and a way to get the piping there. However, not as easy as it seems, for the hot pipe, i can't make it around because of the washer fluid. I saw several pictures of the paths you guys took for the piping but it's not clear in my head, and I don't wanna go below (splashguard). Some of you deleted the washer fluid tank? WTF?

And I also wanna know how do you move the power steering cooling hose beside the hood ''ketch'', the f***ing thing won't bend.

Sorry for the many questions, but I need help. I'm a mecanic noob


I'm okay for the cold side i've got everything figured out.

there is a how to for this. Check the How to section of thsi website.
I actually cut some of the wall right near the washer to make space to get my hot pipe into the engine bay.

Here are some of my posts with pics that might help.

Im doing my piping now, and you might be able to get away with no taking out your windshield wiper fluid thing, but I had no reason for it anyways since I have a CF hood, so I just took it out, but what size/kind core do you have, post a pic of it, if I can find my camera tomorrow I will take some pics of my setup, either way, to get them under the 03 fogs, I have had to run the pipes right on the bottom of the areas where the windshield wiper fluid container is, so you prob. don't even need to take it out, and as far as the splash guards, they fit, it's really tight but they fit, if anything I might need to trim just a tiny tiny bit from the part where it is right next to the toe support piece, which I also took out on the left/pass. side, might try to find another place to mount it, but not really a big deal right now
also I like the CS link- http://support.corksport.com/instructions/99p-6-130_10_11_12_13-WEB.pdf

or if that doesn't work do this one and click on instructions http://www.corksport.com/corksport-power-series-fmic-kit-for-ms-protege.html
