Power steering fluid drips on it. I have Mad's rubber elbow installed and the tubing is routed à la JMC not Procharger. I was thinking of going with 3 inch tubing from the blower to the 3 core inter cooler and from that to the TB. I would then have a bung welded on the tube coming out of the blower to mount the bypass valve and run the hose from there to the Elbow.
What do you think?

I don't think you'll be disappointed and might aid in subtracting boost lag

The french text was written by someone who's mother tongue is not french. But no matter it is fun to use the language.The individual was inquiring if there was a francophone F150 community in Canada. I replied "Not as far as I know." FYI all of my computer keyboards are French Canadian. Even my laptop.

Found the Leaks! MAD's elbow has leaks where the IAC tube and the vent for the cam cover bungs meet at the elbow.
Now in all fairness to MAD the kit I purchased had his elbow and the larger crank pulleys included. The pulley was missing the adapter to mate it to the factory crank pulley. The rubber elbow had the metal tubes for the above hoses pulled out of the elbow and it looked like someone had tried to silicone them back in. I removed them and used a brass garden hose repair end that I siliconed in. These fittings lasted for over 3 years of my abuse. The oil from the can cover eventually weakened the bond of the silicone to the elbow and they leaked. I re-sealed them and the codes have gone away.
I have two solutions in mind. First one is to use with a nut and washers in the elbow. The other is to use 4" exhaust pipe bent in a U and weld the required fittings.
