also, isnt that gonna be a pig to get a hose from turbo to intercooler? the route looks somewhat blocked by the rocker cover and the angle from of the turbo

sorry if you have been asked these before, im just kinda confused by it all lol
cos thats how we wanted to mount it , dosent gain anythin just different 2 wats bein doin b4
hose isnt a problem we did it b4 can do it again with 3in pipe this time

Hi Stu,
Good to here that it is moving forward again.
