That’s what I did but I had to mangle the firewall fitting pretty good to do it and I’ve never been quite happy with it. The custom line I made routes nicely under the air box but it really needs a custom fitting.
This kit is essentially the exact set up I built except I did the whole intercooler/stand alone route. Imo it’s a pretty proven configuration (HD kit, wits end etc all use the j pipe and no intercooler and it works great). I think the debate about whether 5-7psi is worth while basically settled...
