Hi Leon, Done like this. Ps.....Turbo revs are sending me 2 U bends and I just pay the postage charges...£12 which aint bad. Happy with the FMIC....only not having U bends let it down.

Cheers Leon. I will be raising it when I get chance. Just have to take it easy over speed bumps.

Leon1 im still very very interested in how you managed to route the left hand side pipe almost upwards! to increase ground clearance issues etc any chance you could describe how you managed it?

I have taken a U bend from the reducer and angled it infront of the intercooler and upwards also, so it fits in the large recess where you're number plate is, then a straight section downwards then the rest you can work out.
This is a longer route to the turbo but you do not have any clearance issues, also flea said it didn't affect the spool up on my old hybrid turbo

all you'll see is a straight pipe. I don't think you'll be able to do it as your intercooler is to far forward going by your pictures

The only way it would go any further back is if I chopped all the brackets off the front of the car infront of the rad.....that seemed a bit drastic mate. It is not too bad and I spoke to marco and he did his the same.

I was jesting...again That was fitted to the car when I bought it......it was the loudest dump valve I have ever heard. I replaced it with a Bailey. When flea saw it in the boot.....he said "tell me you are not fitting that".....honestly. Paul
