No idea tbh mate, I'm not very clued up on JDM yooo!  Can get some pictures etc up if that helps? Mate seemed happy enough with it, and said was a lot cheaper than buying one from elsewhere. ________________________________________ Chris1999 China Gti6 Supercharged  [Fun car] >>Project Thread<<2000 Bianca 306 Diesel [Work runabout] |

Hahah mine was nowhere near 20 gbp, must be chinese knockoff, but a airfilter isnt exactly higher science, look it up on youtube: mighty carmods airfilter tests... from expensive to cheap ones.. not very much difference, maybe longevity is a different story. Looks great mate!!!!!!!!!!  where youre filter is, is my ABSstuff |

Looks great mate!!!!!!!!!! where youre filter is, is my ABSstufffilters make a lot of difference in a turbo car, for a start Ive seen the foam type ones been sucked inside out, hence why ive got a gauze one. the surface area and neck size is also very important for flow, hence why my filters only rated to 450 hp ________________________________________ |

Not much to see really, it's just a bare engine bay in primer.I've also taken the fusebox out, my turbo outlet sits right next to it, so my boost pipe will cut across where the fusebox used to be, then go down through where the abs pump used to be to the intercooler. The air filter, when I get one, will sit somewhere in front of the turbo, depends what happens with the rad pipes. How much did you give for your rad? ________________________________________ Dimma + Gt35 turbo =Solid rear beam mounts £130 07889376885 Dan |

also as you can see ive started to mock up the ducting for the 3 coolers (steering cooler should be on the left) there is a 19 row 235 mocal oil cooler on the right too, all needs to be ducted then fed back into the arch areas.Also the water pipes need rubbing down and coloured too. ANY CRITISISM I NEED NOW BEFORE I START FINISHING THE BLASTED THING!!! ________________________________________ |
