yeh thats where i mean..
yeh i may attempt to relocate the inlet for the turbo, see whats happening... just see where the pipe goes ino an '0' shape is a lot worse than a straigt ' O ' shape if that makes sense...
would you see a fmic as being pointless then and creating more of a burden for the turbo spool?
