Hi all,
thought i would update this which may bring a few smiles considering all the banter....
The gt45 turbo is tight....very tight...my downpipe gives me the first hurdle as the only way i could route out to the both sidepipes (not giving these up...) is by coming under the chassis 3 inch pipe either side...but this would then give me less than 50mm ground clearance and would involve a lot of tight bends as well which is not ideal...
To pipe to a fmic gives me other problems getting past my radiator so may have had to give up on an intercooler as well.. cant even get 2 inch piping past...
i dont want to chop into chassis so reluctantly i may have to give up on the single turbo and twins....
This would have been great as can get most pipe bends etc so cost wise would have worked out quite good.
regards
gav
