i am not fabricating anything, dont get my hands dirty , the guys who are doing it are on top of the game so, i am sure they know more than me, and its just that pic that makes it look so close
It is very similar to another rhd turbo set up i have seen, so should be cool

Ah yes Nick, I can see it looping back over the top of the manifold.
Bonnet is going to be red hot!
The turbo itself will be emitting gas at several hundred deg c and will no doubt glow red white and blue - i'd be looking at vents!

lol jay yeah maybe , u will soon have it, its being dyno'd for you on stock on fri i believe,
As far as heat etc , going to wait and see temps etc before starting to cut holes in anything, maybe a good idea

Well had a call from Mase on fri evening, and he said that the car had been dyno'd
It was on my stock engine (125k) stock exhaust/cat, and normal fuel
From what i remember ( as i was alittle tipsy watching the UFC in newcastle) he had just carried out the first dyno and it was at 9 or 10 psi and came out at 400 rwhp
I will hopefully try and get the dyno plot later but not long been back from newcastle. I do know he is carrying out more test on it with more boost and race gas aswell so as soon as i know all i will show
