Default rs1600i rocker cover with turbo crossover pipe

as above. what do i need to consider?

does some of it need to be removed?

is the oil filler up to use on a turbo car?

going on a fiesta RSt (hopefully) if that makes a difference?

EDIT TO ADD what about a spacer in the EFI manifold to lift the throttle body?

The oil filler cap will be up to the job as it twists on where as the cvh filler cap just pushs on.

The centre part of the cover may need drilling and have mounting bolts fitted to secure the cross over pipe

i wondered if it would go at all. the only ones i've seen fitted to turbos have been without the crossover pipes.

i thought it would be higher having the fins?

and would it be thicker being cast instead of tin?

any pics of one with the crossover pipe would be sweet!
