Charge coolers are good but space is a bit tight in a nova to fit one i would think, my twin pass seems to work well keeps the charge air nice and cool.

ive been thinking about space for a charge cooler and came up with the idea of the corsa master cylinder and servo in the battery tray thus giving me space above the gearbox, and cutting the inlet and rewelding to face the other way, i have a spare inlet anyway and can get it welded at work, this would also be done if using a normal style intercooler.

Sounds like a plan, yes it frees up alot of space putting the corsa servo in, cant believe how much nicer the pedal feels compared with a nova brake set up.

IC IMO, Deffo fit a reversed inlet, im doing the same.
As its been mentioned, fit the corsa setup, its so much better, more space too obv.

Twin pass intercooler for me

No need to change the inlet manifold round apart for looks IMO
