Isn't there any other places you can route the air filter?
Surely if you could have it on the drivers side it would make a little difference?

That just looks so so wrong to me 
why does that look wrong? theres no space in the engine bay to mount the actuator and screamer so it goes near the gearbox and is suported

Went to the pod today, my first time running. on arrival it was very damp
in the morning i ran a 15.41 which i was very happy about. then the track closed due to weather for over 3 hours and in the very damp in the evening i ran twice 15.4 again so im sure i can do better when its dry
great day id reccomend it!
and just to show how wet it was, this was the exit to the pod when i left

because it has more mods so is about 10-20bhp more than mine?
i beat him once and he beat me. BLoody punto tuners all the same they have superchips and bleed valves, just keep winding up the boost until they win lol.
he was running more pressure and i need the management and that will sort my fueling out and ill be great just waiting for my friend to remove it from his car

well after 1 month of fitting my new stainless manifold it had a crack so plans were to remove it, weld it, brace it and refit it.
once removed i realised it had cracked in two places and i couldnt be bothered as i knew it would just keep cracking and giving me problems so i refitted the stanard one
while all apart i also fitted a Honda Radiator to increase cooling to the turbo
And Hacked the Front Bumper to increase Airflow to the FMIC
Day Start looked like this
then got going
Day End
and a quick wash later

No wonder it cracked wen u Heat wrapped it...
A decent £400+ tuburlar manifold should crack unless its a cheap ebay one..

Hybrid turbo was an option if my turbo was going to go. they used to be about £440 know there about £540.
My turbo is mint condition so i dont really wanna change it.
Reverse scoop is on the cards know im thinking
Manifold was £110. learn from your mistakes i think

im going to get a piggy back if i do, standalone isnt worth the money with my set up. i have the standard ecu atm.
i could get a FCD but there a bit slap happy modding tbh. its there for a reason until i can get it mapped properly.
im running 0.85bar atm and that does me fine
