SR20DETpwr is an unknown quantity at this point
The guy helping me out with my swap has come up w/ a way that looks really nice and is prob. the simplest way to do it while making it look factory. You will get these parts from Advanced Auto - 1)two 3/4" hose joiners w/ clamps (these come in a kit - you will need two kits - the joiner in the kit should allow the two hoses to meet each other in the middle, the joiners w/ the 1" space in the middle won't work)- 2)two L-shaped hoses (on each hose one end is 5/16" and the other is 3/4" - i think the part number is 303603 - should be @ $2.24) - 3)get a 3/4" U-shaped hose (i would guess that one of the straight ends of the hose should be about 7" long and the bottom at least 4" - get bigger if you can because you can always cut the hose down) - 4)buy the rest of the clamps that you need for the hoses

INSTALLATION
Top hose
1)Install the L-shaped hose - 5/16" goes onto the spout coming out of the firewall and the 3/4" side points to the driverside of the engine bay
2)attach the 3/4" coupling to the 3/4" hose end you just installed
3)Install the 3/4" U-shaped hose on the outlet that points to the driverside of the engine bay - trim hose where needed
4)Attach the U-shaped hose to the 3/4" coupling and now you are done w/ the top hose

Bottom hose
1)Install the L-shaped hose - 5/16" goes onto the spout coming out of the firewall and the 3/4 " side points to the driverside of the engine bay
2)There should be an L-shaped hose coming off the other outlet on the back of the engine that's already there (if this confuses you it is just the one that came on the engine) - turn this hose so it faces the passenger side of the engine bay
3)connect these two hoses using the 3/4" coupling - note that trimming one/both of these hoses is required so they fit together

YOU'RE DONE - now enjoy the clean-looking hoses
