Soy had a single pass intercooler if that would make any difference?

From what i recall he had a 45deg hose from the T/B going down

The throtle bodies pointing at a c*nt of a position imo, can see that it's probably like that for the turbo being where it is, hard to tell from the pic the size of gaps etc...

Did it not go around the strut top between the strut top and the wing?

RST-G Which of the manifolds do you have from ian is it the exact as above?

If the same as above persoanlly i would have the inlet modified or an elbow made to bring the angle of the throttle body 45 degree the other way.. then heat wrap the pipework to reduce heat soak.

yeah my mate found piping a bit of a pain in the ass with custom manifolds too, but that's to be expected when you stray from the norm imo.

I solved this problem buy binning the servo and master cylinder and getting a bias pedal box fitted.. you have all the room in the world then.

Otherwise your going to need to fabricate a pipe that runs around the cylinder and turbo etc.

We can build you a custom pipe to fit from the throttle, under the manifold and to the intercooler. Looks similar to this one we made, but obviously it will need to go under the exhaust manifold...
