The filter is cool, where did you mount it in the end? just on the turbo or does it have a second mount? |

First of all, DON'T draum the contents om the catch tank back to the sump. On the other hand, with a design like that you,ll be filling it up rather quickly.... On 13th Jul, 2012 Ben H said:

Usually it's not the size of the ports on the flange, but the bends that are the most restrictive.

Yea just seen It on YouTube that it is the common practice to smooth the ports back to the gasket which is all I've done, just wondered If there was any thing else I could do.. Main Build

What drill bit and size did you tap the radiator to mate? would 1/4 bsp be too big do you think? On 10th Mar, 2012 theoneeyedlizard said:

Amazing! So much detail on such a small car. Love the air intake! I've been planning mounting the filter under the wing outside the car somehow. |

Certainly is an immaculate build. Hope mine one day looks half as good as yours BHP sells engines, but Torque wins races! |
