I'm considering relocating the battery to the boot, then putting an oil cooler in the space where the battery was. Smile

Also, I've wrecked my boost pipes too; worse than yours though, mine actually had holes in them. I've had another set knocked up made from stainless steel instead of flimsy aluminium. They sit a lot higher now (almost flush with cross member) and if they do ground they'll not be being damaged!


How many times have i said sack those underneith outlets off and you said it cant be done? Whats this then? NOB! LOL:

never liked the pipes going under , use to hit to many things with 60mm drop , so now have side pass setup



I really like that^ I leant quickly years ago to only use steel on boost pipes near to the floor! Is that the stock radiator etc?

Yeah but that setup can't accommodate 2.5 inch piping...

What I've got now is fine; the sump is as low as the pipes.
