Crap from turbo thread

Had to have a self chuckle the other day thou, to keep the heat down in the engine bay, I've removed the rubber seal that goes along the back edge of the engine bay. I've taken off from the lights in a hurry this morning - in this rain - and instantly the amount of heat that came thru that little gap, up the windscreen, completely fogged my window. It was like a white out :lol:
I have the solution to all our cooling probs Ben .. BEHOLD!

aye, 'tis a bit more of a problem for them to work on than most other FTO's having to pull off the turbo gear .. just picked up my baby again today, new clutch installed & a bit tricky to get used to but otherwise running perfect :)

Ahh okay, he said that you decided to put your turbo in the wrong place or something, lol. I dunno wasn't paying to much attention, had a little look though, never seen you around brissy though.

Sorry for the OT there Ben. Lol.

hmm .. i dunno

where the turbo is mounted (where the battery used to be) is the only place it could be mounted really .. which meant that the custom intake manifold / TB needed to be made up to move intake to the other side away from the exhaust
