So you want a hairdryer on your FTO? Or do you already have a hairdryer in it? This is the section for it. All other big power projects & forced induction goes here too.

Round two will be when we're back in Perth probably.
Round one was in England when he had an Astra Turbo (manual), I had the Supercharged Tip FTO and it was on a 'private road' not an actual strip. The FTO came out on top.
We took both cars down to Shakespeare country raceway in the UK for a head to head but rain stopped the play (as is quite common).
He will beat me eventually if his car doesn't blow up as he's going to throw more money at it to run more boost than I will.

Didn't know about that, will have a look at his thread.

All g. I'm guessing space in that area is pretty similar between prefacelift and facelift anyway. At least it would save it from cooler piping being all through the bay.

Yeah that's what i'm thinking, I think it will be an easier install too.
Not up and running yet and already he's just ordered more bits!
Snow performance water/meth injection kit (progressive controlled), wants to keep me busy and distracted from my project I think.
At least I can have a play with it before deciding whether or not to put one on mine.
I think he's gone for one of these: http://www.snowperformance.net/Stage-2- ... -p/210.htm
Anyone know what the 4 ports on the turbo relate to in terms of oil and coolant in/out - is there an easy way to find out like is it obvious?
I'm presuming the smallest is oil in and the one opposite is oil out and then the slightly larger ones are coolant?
It's a GT35.
Thanks Ben.
The heater matrix has been bypassed since he bought the car cause it's knackered and got no plans to replace it soon, can he use those connections for water to / from the turbo or is that a bad idea?
