Plus the ratio is crap for them , when sitting around 70mph ur constantly on and off boost which will cane fuel, reduce the life of the turbo, oh and make you feel sick

F20's tend to through the diffs out of the casing with LET's I heard. My f28 is in the engine bay fine with no cutting . . .

Yeah I know but with the tophat already having a place for the DV to go you'd either have to bung it up or use it.
