What inlet did you use?? I want a front mount for mine but it routes to the drivers side and then awkwardly from the turbo :( whereas yours goes to the left from the turbo

I used the Bam inlet so it's on the right hand side and the boost pipe drops down from throttle body to the front mount and the turbo one runs under the chassis leg on the left hand side into the intercooler....

What inlet do you have?

  • Slight update.....it is now fully MOT'd, taxed and insured as of Saturday morning. I've been driving it the past 2 days with no problems apart from the boost hose that clamps on the turbo likes to pop

What front mount is that dude?

Toyo Motorsport one from eBay :)

I need a little chat ;) your mob number end in 445 still?

That's the one ;)

Ah right so you ran the inlet side to the passenger side of the intercooler and the the boost pipe down behind the engine and into the drivers side, i take it that youve used all custom piping???

Not sure how thatd work with mine as i have an AUM with the map sensor :/

Yeah the throttle body on bam is on passenger side so I have just routed that down to the pass side of intercooler and the turbo one goes down past back of block and then under the chassis leg :) there isn't much room behind there but it just fits!

I'm not sure on yours, to do same as mine you would need the throttle body on passenger side....

Love this ;)
