Its certainly a tight squeeze. Easy enough to work on the new turbo.

Its better than the previous set up as the turbo is easy to get at for this setup with it sitting nicely above the gearbox. The previous setup (EVO8) had the turbo between the engine block and the firewall which was much harder to get in to.

Should be firing at the end of this week. Cant wait!

Interesting the way Jared has modified the intake. Im guessing theres an intercooler in the drivers side vent?

I'm hoping. But still a bit to get done. Trying to have it running for at least Sunday's Omokoroa BBQ event, if the weather plays it part.
