Putting in my RS6 IC's a few questions....
What size piping for the IC's Where it comes out of the KO4's and the Throttle body pipe? Just the diameter not the length.
And where do I route these lines the ones on the left. I am pretty sure they are AC lines. Under or behind etc?

You have RS4 endtanks on those right? See what diameter APR uses, or contact VAST - I'm sure they'd
tell you what they are. Those lines on the pass side are AC lines; they fit under my RS4 ICs but I think your RS6s are taller. Some time ago a use named "MorganHillMadman" or something similar put these in his car - I would do a search and see if there are any pics. Hope that helps!

Thanks.I did use his pix and another members but most of those pix were without the whole bumper on.
Good idea. I'll call prince at VAST and ask him he is always helpful.

Ah right - they look like a great upgrade - I'd have liked to pick some up myself. One more note on
hoses - in the Tech section write up from ASP about installing RS4s they use hoses that have an accordian section - once you have the diameter set that could be a good option for you if stock RS4 hoses do not work. Maybe you're already planning that. Please post up the end result!

Yea I actually scored some of those accordian hoses. Really helped on the bottom where its
shaped like an S. But the top is just a straight hose but I have to go from 2 1/2 - 2 3/4 and they only make the step down in 3 inch length and I need 5-6 inches. I am using a metal pipe to join them with a bead welded around the edges so that it doesn't pop off for now. I can order custom ones but they take up to 3 weeks to get so I'll rig this up and order them in the mean time.
