I/C Pipes & DSP
Was going through the rules for DSP and found the section where they talk about intercoolers. No problems there, you can have anything you want so long as it fits behind the bumper. Problem is, I find no mention of the intercooler piping. Not even in any of the other classes! Could this have been over looked? Do other stock turbo car owners not change intercooler piping?
I ask bc it says in like the first section of the rules, "If it's not mentioned, it's not allowed."

Section 14.10 C talks about the induction system and it sounds kinda like the piping would be included there but it's vague.
Section 15.10 C #3 talks about the intercoolers.
Should I write someone over at the SCCA? Do they respond to these types of inquiries?

14.10 C wouldn't apply since that is for ST categories. I don't see anything specifically for SP, and it wouldn't be allowed by the inherited stock category rules, since the intake is restricted there. You'll have to write in, or better yet, just check on the SCCA autox forums.

Okay, I'll do that. Yeah, I think its funny that from what I understand, its not allowed b/c of the sensors not because of the tune itself!

You will have no problems with intercooler piping.
I ran a RX7 in Asp and changing the intercooler piping in SP is fine.
Carry on.
15.10.c.
3. As utilized only on engines originally equipped with forced induction,
induction charge heat exchangers (known as “intercoolers” or
“charge air coolers (CACs)”) are unrestricted in size and configuration.
Air-to-air CACs and radiators for air-to-liquid CACs must be
cooled only by the atmosphere, except for standard parts. Body
panels, fascias, or structural members may not be cut or altered
to facilitate CAC installation.
No changes to 2012 in reference to the part you mention.
Since the part is unrestricted, the piping going to it will also fall under the same rule.
