Hello, I'm building an e28 m5 m88 dinan turbo car. Does anyone know if the original pipe from the turbo compressor outlet to the intercooler inlet goes under the oil pan? I have all the piping but none of it seems to make the right bends. It wasn't a chrome pipe right? Does anyone own one of these beasts? thank you for your time

Thank you for the picture. That's a sweet setup. My intercooler is on the driver's side. So I'm trying to find out if the pipe runs under the motor to get to the other side. There doesn't seem to be enough room to run across the front.

See my web page:
http://home.comcast.net/~russelc/dinan2 ... thaniv.htm Scroll down to the M5 turbo.

The outlet runs under the car to the underside IC somewhere. You may be missing pcs to the system if its dosen't make sense. Get some help or call Dinan, they may help you. Where are you?

I'm in Carlsbad, Ca. (Little north of san diego). I'll figure it out. If I'm missing something Ill have somebody make up a couple mandrel bends out of stainless. No big deal. This should be fun. I'm using the split second MAF sensor conversion with the turbo. Going to run water injection as well.
Thanks for help.

I have an S38 (E24) with a Dinan turbo and yes the pipe runs underneath in front of the oil pan. Although my intercooler is on the drivers side.

Yep, that's what he said:
