not sure what to do about where the filter is going to sit apart from straight onto the side of the turbo which aint ideal for intake temps really, not much room

so things was looking good at this point until i trial fitted the inlet plenum and discovered the throttle body was going to foul the stock servo/mc setup so ill haveto get a pedal box setup now which i didnt really want to do tbh but never mind
Dude that looks good, I'm taking the the Quaife can take the higher power from the let lump? Will the I/v sit in the bumper cut out?
Can you not trim/make a cut out in the inlet box to clear?
great project. watching this :)
