Right guys, I'm going big turbo (iveco ko3) on my HDi in a couple of months.
But not really sure if to bay mount it or keep in its original location, as I'm thinking I can get the pipework to bay mount it made up for about the same cost as having the old hotside machined.
I'm leaning more towards bay mounting it as there's less restrictions on the inlet piping (sraight from the filter into the maf then turbo), and I'll get better routing on the boost piping also.
Obviously the other benifits are its easy to change out if it goes tits up, boost is easier to adjust, easier to swap out for a bigger turbo if I so wish.
The only thing that is put me off is the extra time it will take to spool, if any at all?
So guys opinions please?
